See the discussion on opensuse-factory for details - it looks like the mountpoint depends on udisk vs. udisk2 usage. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

(If in doubt, ask a Gnome user for confirmation.) # rpm -e --test udisks2 (nothing on my system) In other words: You should change the proposed release notes entry to be specific for desktops that use udisks2. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

There's no requires, but a recommends on udisks2 (so people can remove it if they really want). And indeed, the mount point is different between udisks and udisks2. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Thanks for the background info! I'd like to keep it as simple and short as possible; thus my new proposal:
Unfortunately "simple and short" is not too different from "useless" in your proposal. The average user won't know if/where udisks or udisks2 is used, and might just guess that /run/media/$USER is the new default - which will confuse all KDE users ;-) The text should at least mention the most popular desktop environments. Proposal: (added parts __marked__) With udisk2 __(used by Gnome)__, USB media get automatically mounted under <filename>/run/media/$USER</filename>. Previously with udisk version 1 __(still used by KDE)__, USB media were mounted under /media. Or completely rewrite it: Gnome now uses udisks2 to automatically mount USB media under /run/media/$USER. KDE still uses udisks version 1 and mounts USB media under /media. (Yes, having defaults that depend on the desktop environment you use sucks.) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

KDE still uses udisks version 1 and mounts USB media under /media. ========================================================================== And yes, I'll add it to the "Technical" section, which the average user is not actually meant to read (because it is "technical"). But of course, I do not mind re-writing it the way you proposed it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
