When the flash drive is inserted, kernel modules are modprobed and hal gets fired up, causing the icon to appear. Evidence: nothing in .xsession-errors, happy kernel module activity in /var/log/messages, and happy kernel modules and hal activity in /var/log/syslog, which is attached as "syslog" to this. "mount" does NOT show the drive as mounted.
gvfs-mount was not present on my system. Synaptic could not find it in any repository. I downloaded from: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/amd64/gvfs-bin the raw .deb file and installed it with dpkg, which worked. It appears gvfs-bin is having a colorful history on amd64? I have to continue in another addition, it appears only one attachment per comment? ** Attachment added: "Output of /var/log/syslog after usb flash drive insertion" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/16486510/syslog -- Nautilus can't open usb flash drive https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/246189 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
