Noting that w/ the process removed I'm using a click mount in nautilus to mount the drive(s) Have tried w/ 3 usb drives, 2 with ext. power buttons, 1 without, the exact same is seen on all This behavior started up sometime in the last month or so, I believe well after the initial inclusion of the helper in g-s-d in late july ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: gnome-settings-daemon 3.1.91-0ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-10.16-generic 3.0.4 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-10-generic i686 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Architecture: i386 Date: Thu Sep 8 12:15:41 2011 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Beta i386 (20110831) SourcePackage: gnome-settings-daemon UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) modified.conffile..etc.xdg.autostart.gnome.fallback.mount.helper.desktop: [modified] mtime.conffile..etc.xdg.autostart.gnome.fallback.mount.helper.desktop: 2011-09-07T23:32:46.302628 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/844957/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
