Public bug reported:
was reporting a separate bug #1010858 about double icons appearing for
mounted filesystems, and it occurred to me that it was happening for
volumes I had listed in /etc/fstab with uhelper=udisks, the mechanism i
used in previous versions to mount internal drives and see them in
launcher etc.
In investigating, I found the apparently-new gnome-disk-utility "Disks"
and that seems to have new options for doing this properly, but when I
tried to use them in closest-to-default way, it failed.
The attached screenshot shows the options I had set on a volume. Below
is the line that generated in /etc/fstab:
LABEL=Spinner /mnt/Spinner auto nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0
It fails to mount when you try to mount it in the disk utility. An error
dialogue opens with:
Error mounting system-managed device /dev/sdg1: Command-line `mount
"/mnt/Spinner"' exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: wrong fs type, bad
option, bad superblock on /dev/sdg1,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
(udisks-error-quark, 0)
dmesg | tail gives:
[ 619.470006] EXT4-fs (sdg1): Unrecognized mount option "x-gvfs-show"
or missing value
I expect the bug isn't so much in the disk utility app itself as in the
underlying mount tools that have probably been compiled without a
required option, but the user experience is that it fails when using the
disk utility, hence reporting it here for now.
I suspect I can make this work a different way using prior knowledge, to
make it mount in /media and using uhelper=udisks2 - will be trying that
in a moment - but this seemed the logical, minimal way to proceed for
the new utility and it failed.
