http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=617771 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=617771#c0 Summary: Mounting usb-disk warning: Unable to mount <volume-name> Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Factory Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: badshah400@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Created an attachment (id=371994) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=371994) warning dialog User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-GB; rv:1.9.2.4) Gecko/20100527 SUSE/3.6.4-2.6 Firefox/3.6.4 Sometimes [which means I do not know what exactly triggers the problem, but possibly after resuming from hibernation?], when I insert a usb-disk it gives this warning dialog [as in screenshot] and launches simultaneously three or four nautilus windows displaying the content of the disk. It means mounting is successful despite the warning, but the multiplicity of nautilus windows opened at once is a nuisance. Gnome problem because I have not seen this happen with KDE yet. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1.Insert usb-disk 2. 3. Actual Results: 3--4 nautilus windows and the same number of warnings with message described above and shown in screenshot Expected Results: seamless mounting of device expected -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

So we'd really need to have a way to reliably reproduce this. Could you play a bit more with it to know in which circumstances this happens?
Hi Vincent! I really am unable to consistently reproduce this, but the one thing I can see is that once it happens, it keeps happening every time you plug a usb-disk (either the same one or any other). So I am not really sure what to do with this report. I think, I will keep the needinfo open for myself, and keep an eye out for this to happen so that I can attach logs, etc. Thanks. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I am at a loss to explain why/when it starts to happen. But I have found out a few things that might help someone more knowledgeable to pin the problem down, or generally. 1. The problem is user-account specific. I created a new user after the problem started and logged in with that account. There the problem does not occur when the same usb-disk is inserted. I confirmed this be shuttling between the user-accounts several times. 2. What seems to solve the problem (at least temporarily)? Log out, delete all entries in the directory ~/.local/share/gvfs-metadata/ . Log back in. For the present I hope this provides some information, and I will remove the NEEDINFO tag. I will keep trying to reproduce this consistently and provide further information. For now, I hope this info is at least a little useful. -- 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.
