I found something that might be helpful for people affected by this bug: When I plug in a USB drive in Kubuntu 3.06 (with KDE 3.5.4 ), get the described behaviour, it mounts to:
/media/sdb1 However, if I left-click on the desktop icon I see that the desired mount point is set to: /media/filesystem_label There is a checkbox underneath. When selected, the USB drive now mounts to both mountpoints, which at least for me, solves the problem. -- Ugly mount point name used for removable media https://launchpad.net/bugs/48104 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
