Appears to be incorrect location of xpm icons configured in /etc/wmmount. @Peter - to get you up and running, in /etc/wmmount (or your ~/.wmmount), please replace instances of: icon /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/wmmount/cdrom.xpm icon /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/wmmount/floppy.xpm icon /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/wmmount/zip.xpm icon /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/wmmount/harddisk.xpm with: icon /usr/lib/X11/wmmount/cdrom.xpm icon /usr/lib/X11/wmmount/floppy.xpm icon /usr/lib/X11/wmmount/zip.xpm icon /usr/lib/X11/wmmount/harddisk.xpm I've tested this with Tumbleweed and Leap 42.3 and wmmount now starts successfully.
