Current version: Ubuntu 24.10
Using Nautilus I plus in a portable Samsung T7 (2TB) drive & the name of the
drive appears.
However, the 'eject symbol' and the listing of folders within the drive do not
appear.
Testing to see if the drive is indeed mounted via: mount | grep -F
"/media/$(id -un)"
resulted in no information being returned, indicating that the drive is
not mounted.
Clicking on the drive in nautilus caused the folders and eject icon to
appear after a few milliseconds.
Retesting the 'mount' command showed:
/dev/sde1 on /media/abc/Data Backup type ext4
(rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,errors=remount-ro,stripe=8191,uhelper=udisks2)
checking: gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.media-handling automount
resulted in 'true'
checking /etc/fstab showed no entry for the drive.
using 'disks' to edit the mounting options and with 'automount on start
up' did automount the device, but only when plugged in during startup..
otherwise ineffective.
An fstab entry without the 'automount on startup' was ineffective.
