Public bug reported: After upgrading to 17.04, nautilus stops opening the inserted flash drives. It gives:
Unable to open a folder for DRIVENAME No application is registered as handling this file The fix was found here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/583375/access-to-usb-drive-broken-after-changing-uid You need to remove /media/username directory for it to work again. I checked and the only difference I've found is that before removal the dir has: drwxr-x--- 2 root root and after removal: drwxr-x---+ 3 root root So it seems newer nautilus can't work if there are no ACL assigned to the dir? ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1733118 Title: flash drive stops working after upgrade To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1733118/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
