** Description changed: [Impact] + OEM customers raise this issue, thinking that the error message can be misleading to inexperienced users. [Fix] [Test Case] + Format a SD card with NTFS, lock the SD card as write-protected, insert the card into the SD card slot. If the card is mounted as read-only, the bug is fixed. [Regression Potential] [Original Report] Mounting of read only NTFS filesystem gives a following error popup: Cannot mount volume. Unable to mount the volume '<Volume name>'. Details: Error opening '/dev/sdb2': Read-only file system Failed to mount '/dev/sdb2': Read-only file system I believe this should be mounted as read-only instead of an error message. Mounting by hand with the "-o ro" argument works as expected. --- Architecture: i386 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 NonfreeKernelModules: fglrx Package: mountall 2.15 PackageArchitecture: i386 ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_US.utf8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-24.39-generic 2.6.32.15+drm33.5 Tags: lucid Uname: Linux 2.6.32-24-generic i686 UserGroups: adm admin audio cdrom dialout dip fax fuse lpadmin netdev plugdev sambashare tape video
