Inline is what works/not works with local user account, not a domain one:

It does not show in System/Storage media in konqueror. In "My Computer" after the CD-ROM drives, there is a small floppy icon, but there is no underlined text after it, and the icon is not clickable.
same with local account
In /etc/fstab I have this line: /dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto noauto,user,sync 0 0
So, I decided that it is automountable, and with konqueror I opened /media/floppy, but it is empty - it did not mount it. dmesg shows nothing about this.

Then I used mount /media/floppy and it mounted ok as a user. I could umount it as well.

But even mounted, the icon did not appear anywhere.

Some additional information - I just found that there is a floppy icon at the bottom of the "Computer" section in the "new" kde menu. It's just an icon, no text on the line. Anyway - clicking on it, it opened konqueror in system:/media/fd0, which is empty (and I'm sure on the diskette there are files).
with local account it does work - it opened system:/media/fd0 and I could see the files. I could also see the files browsing to /media/floppy.
Then I right-clicked on that icon (in the Computer menu), and selected Mount. It produced an error: Error - kio_media_mounthelper : Could not read /tmp/kde-MYDOMAIN\sunny/kio_fileWgUab.tmp.
With local user right-click and Unmount works. The Mount worked as well. So - obviously there is a problem when the user is a domain user, and not a local one. But even with a local one the automount - i.e. viewing /media/floppy does not automount the floppy. Can somebody confirm my observations, so I can file a bug? Or tell me how to do it "properly" so I make it work? -- Svetoslav Milenov (Sunny) Even the most advanced equipment in the hands of the ignorant is just a pile of scrap. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
