Hi, I have troubles with "Dynamic mount of USB devices"... (at least understanding exactly how it is supposed to work).
I've got 2 devices: - one USB hard drive 6Gb (formatted using vfat) - one digital camera Sone DSC-F505 1) I boot up my box with both devices switched off 2) #ls -la /dev/sd* lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 33 Oct 3 19:22 sda -> scsi/host1/bus0/target3/lun0/disc sd: total 0 drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Oct 3 19:18 ./ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Jan 1 1970 ../ lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 36 Oct 3 19:22 c1b0t3u0 -> ../scsi/host1/bus0/target3/lun0/disc 3) I switched on the USB hard drive 4) #ls -la /dev/sd* lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 33 Oct 3 19:22 sda -> scsi/host1/bus0/target3/lun0/disc lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 33 Oct 3 19:32 sdb -> scsi/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/disc lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 34 Oct 3 19:32 sdb1 -> scsi/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 sd: total 0 drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Oct 3 19:18 ./ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Jan 1 1970 ../ lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 36 Oct 3 19:22 c1b0t3u0 -> ../scsi/host1/bus0/target3/lun0/disc lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 36 Oct 3 19:32 c2b0t0u0 -> ../scsi/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/disc lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 37 Oct 3 19:32 c2b0t0u0p1 -> ../scsi/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 So I can see that my device can now be accessed through /dev/sdb1 but I don't get any dynamic mount icon on the desktop... 5) I switched on my digital camera 6) #ls -la /dev/sd* lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 33 Oct 3 19:22 sda -> scsi/host1/bus0/target3/lun0/disc lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 33 Oct 3 19:32 sdb -> scsi/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/disc lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 34 Oct 3 19:32 sdb1 -> scsi/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 33 Oct 3 19:35 sdc -> scsi/host3/bus0/target0/lun0/disc lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 34 Oct 3 19:35 sdc1 -> scsi/host3/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 sd: total 0 drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Oct 3 19:18 ./ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Jan 1 1970 ../ lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 36 Oct 3 19:22 c1b0t3u0 -> ../scsi/host1/bus0/target3/lun0/disc lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 36 Oct 3 19:32 c2b0t0u0 -> ../scsi/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/disc lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 37 Oct 3 19:32 c2b0t0u0p1 -> ../scsi/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 36 Oct 3 19:35 c3b0t0u0 -> ../scsi/host3/bus0/target0/lun0/disc lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 37 Oct 3 19:35 c3b0t0u0p1 -> ../scsi/host3/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 So I can see that my device can now be accessed through /dev/sdc1 but I don't get any dynamic mount icon on the desktop... Note: I saw the dynamic_mnt_camera icon twice but how it appears and what triggers it seems random... also the 2 times I got it, clicking on it triggered konqueror with nothing in it... #ls -la /mnt/camera listed my memory stick correctly though. I do not have any problem accessing sd devices, I can do without the dynamic stuff, I just want to understand how it works. Also is there a way to completely disable this feature? Thanks /Fred
