Can you elaborate on why you want to directly use the command line tools, instead of configuring the desktop to do the auto-mounting?
The desktop (xfce) no longer automatically mounts the devices and I'd like to stick with desktop-defaults as much as possible. But in the end, I'll probably switch the default. Oops, I just see that the options are already enabled, but the filemanager does not actually mount the device, it just displays the label; if you click it, it gets mounted... (I guess this is what Phillip meant).
With xfce under 12.2, I'd guesstimate the chance that a device gets mounted ca 50% on average. For me, a device that has not been attached before, usually mounts immediatly. The logic appears to be: The more often a device is being re-attached the lower the chance that it gets automatically mounted. The system apparently tries to track state of known devices, or something.
No, but it might be https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9193 In short, there seems to be a race condition between Thunar and gio, Thunar discovers a device/media via udev and then executes thunar-volman before the device is actually available through udisks2/gio. I suppose this only surfaces now because udisks2 is slower than udisks1. -- Guido Berhoerster -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
