I don't have a clue where lies problem, but I have a working solution (checked on 2 intrepid boxes that both had broken USB automount):
1. install usbmount (sudo apt-get install usbmount) 2. edit /etc/usbmount/usbmount.conf (sudo gedit /etc/usbmount/usbmount.conf) 3. change line FILESYSTEMS="ext2 ext3" to FILESYSTEMS="vfat ext2 ext3" observe warning: ############################################### # WARNING! The vfat filesystem does not yet fully implement sync-mounting. # # If you include "vfat" in the list of filesystem types, you *MUST* make # # sure all data is written to the medium before you remove it (e.g. run the # # "sync" command in a terminal window). Otherwise, you *WILL* lose data! # ############################################## (as most small USB devices has vfat filesystem, that is appropriate solution, for other try adding ntfs etc) -- usb automount fail after an upgrade from 8.04.1 to 8.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292874 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
