[gentoo-user] KDE 3.5 media manager problem

2005-12-19 Thread Roy Wright

Howdy,

Just upgraded KDE to 3.5 and have a minor problem. 
When I start KDE with a SM memory card installed

in my USB reader, a removable media icon shows on
the desktop.  If I remove the memory card, the icon
goes away.  If I reinsert it, then the icon reappears
and I get the A new medium has been detected.  What
do you want to do? dialog box.

So far so good.

The problem starts when I want to open the memory.

If I choose open from the dialog or just click on the
memory's desktop icon, I get the following error box:

Error - Konqueror
Could not mount device.
The reported error was:
mount: can't find /dev/sde1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab

If I right click on the memory's desktop icon and choose
mount, I get the following error box:

Error - kio_media_mounthelper
mount: can't find /dev/sde1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
Please check that the device is plugged correctly.

I can manually mount the memory with:

 mount -t auto /dev/sde1 /mnt/usb

My understanding is that pmount is suppose to eliminate
the need to list each device in /etc/fstab.  So I'm guessing
I don't have pmount configured correctly.

I'm using:

 hal-0.5.5.1-r1
 dbus-0.50-r1
 pmount-0.9.6

I have not done any manual configuration changes to these.

I do not have ivman installed.

Any ideas?

TIA,
Roy
