Bug ID: 498934
Summary: It is not possible to automatically mount an encrypted
drive without user intervention even if password is
saved
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.2.5
Platform: openSUSE
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Disks & Devices widget
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: r...@alum.mit.edu
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
It is not possible to automatically mount an encrypted drive without user
intervention even if password is saved
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Plug in a USB storage device that's LUKS protected with the password already
stored
OBSERVED RESULT
Dialog pops up with password already filled in. Clicking OK mounts the device.
EXPECTED RESULT
At least optionally mount device with no user intervention, as the password for
the device is already saved.
With a non-encrypted device, it automatically mounts (that's how I've
configured the device manager).
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows:
macOS:
(available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window)
Linux/KDE Plasma: OpenSUSE 15.6
KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.116
Qt Version: 6.8.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I have filed this issue against KDE4 and KDE5, but as those are no longer
supported I'm refiling it against KDE6. This is admittedly a nuisance issue,
but it's a problem for e. g. a headless server running KDE accessible via VNC
or the like.
