Hi All, This is really more of a GNOME problem than a GARNOME problem, but since I'm already subscribed here and all of you are extremely knowledgable about GNOME I thought I'd see if one of you might be able to explain what's going on. I'm running 'stock' GNOME 2.12.0 on SUSE Linux 10.0 on a plain vanilla i686 box with three standard IDE hard drives. Below are the entries in /etc/fstab pertaining to my question (Note the 'noauto' declaration in each entry and the fact that one is vfat and the other Reiserfs.):
/dev/hdb12 /mnt/hdb-bak reiserfs noauto,acl,user_xattr 1 2 /dev/hdc1 /mnt/hdc-bak vfat noauto,users,gid=users,umask=0002,utf8=true 0 0 I discovered, after booting, that hdb12 is not being mounted automatically (the desired behavior) but hdc1 *is.* I've narrowed the problem down to GNOME. :-/ Following is the test procedure that I used to determine this: From my desktop: a) Ctl+Alt+F1 to console b) logged in as root c) umount /dev/hdc1 d) exit (returned to login prompt) e) Ctl+Alt+F7 (returned to desktop) f) Desktop>Logout>checked 'Save current setup' g) checked 'Restart the computer' After rebooting: h) at the gdm greeter, Ctl+Alt+F1 to console i) logged in as root j) 'mount' shows /dev/hdc1 is *not* mounted k) exit and Ctl+Alt+F7 (return to greeter) l) logged into desktop as user m) Ctl+Alt+F1 to console n) logged in as root o) 'mount' shows /dev/hdc1 *is* mounted. I didn't knowingly have any applications running that would have a need to mount hdc1... I'm running just a normal set of taskbar/panel(?) stuff: volume control, mixer, KOrganizer Reminder Daemon (I run Kontact), SUSEWatcher, KGpg, KSensors, Ethernet connection, Display information, clock/date. I've scanned hundreds of docs and spent hours on Google to no avail. I may be missing something simple, I know, and I apologize but I'm really starting to pull my hair out. Any suggestions, explanations or even a cure would be very gratefully appreciated.
