I'm not sure what happened, but one day I noticed that when I plugged in my compactflash reader, although the device appeared on the desktop, instead of konqueror opening /media/CANON_DC, it tried to open the name of the device with media:/dev/sda1, which did NOT work. What changed, where can I look to fix it, etc...? Does anybody have any idea what to do here? I've rebooted a couple of times and other than that I'm not really sure where to check. If I use a console, /media/CANON_DC *is* mounted and I can access it that way.
Are you sure you were doing the same thing as before?? CANON_DC sounds like a digital camera, not a generic compactflash reader.
Good question! However, I'm absolutely sure. Dunno why the
compactflash card is called that, but it is.
I hope the list will forgive me, but here are parts of
