Sorry I couldent have got back to this one quicker, but unfortunately this box's motherboard was in China for an unexpected amount of time & I just got it back last friday. In any event, prior to having the hardware failure in question I had upgraded to 8.10, after having some time to run some experiments on this it looks as though this is now working in Gnome as expected (It doesnt seem as though it gets mounted automatically, but Im fine with that for the time being) from the Xming session I start from my Windows machine, I go to Places ~> 1000.2 GB Media & it shows up on the desktop as expected.
