I've just tried to plug in 3 known-working USB sticks into this UB daily build, with content on the USB sticks that I access from other *buntu machines, and with each stick I got the same result - "unable to access <usb stick name> - read-only file system".
So that's a pretty significant bug, I'd say. Thanks, Ken. *** -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1754918 Title: Budgie / Gnome file manager "unable to access" a USB stick that works fine under Linux Mint LTS Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: (As seen under yesterday's daily build of Ubuntu Budgie 18.04, 32bit, with all updates applied) Under this build of Budgie, I opened "Disks", and formatted a 4GB USB stick as FAT (quick format - not overwriting with zeroes). On the same machine, the file manager complained about "unable to access drive - read-only file system" (see attached screenshot), even though I routinely do the same operation. I took that newly-formatted USB stick, placed it in a Linux Mint LTS machine, which was able to mount and read the stick automatically and with no problems, and I was able to copy a file onto the stick AOK. So, it seems that the problem is not with the program "Disks" as such, but rather with the Budgie / Gnome file manager.
