AFAIK That's how it should be. At least in KDE you get a pop-up asking you what action should be taken. If you do want automatic mounting you have to configure it.

Someone out there who know how you can use these tools without too much pain from the command line? With udisks --dump (version 1) or udisksctl dump (version 2, cluttered with escape sequences...) you can see a longish list of all devices with all the details... Is there a switch that quickly shows the USB card (SD) that I inserted in the USB card reader? Then with udisks --mount /dev/sdd1 it gets mounted at /media/4865-EF1A.

Well, if you don't know the device, you need to find it somehow. So if you want to only use the command line tools, I'm not sure how you could combine the two steps in one. 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...

Hm, depends on what you want to achieve:
1. mount all SD cards 2. mount any USB storage when it becomes available 3. mount some storage with a known name/label
For the last point, you can use one of the symlinks in /dev/disk/by-*.
For the other ones, I think you have to write some script which either parses the output of --monitor/--dump respectively, or directly talk to udisks(2) via dbus.
Thanks for the backgorund info.

Removable media management is handled by thunar-volume-manager (which btw. builds on GIO which in turn uses udisks2 hence the /run/media mountpoints) and it can be configured to automatically mount drives and media when plugged in, see "Removable Drives and Media" in the Xfce Settings Manager. -- Guido Berhoerster -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

No, it is just listed in the left pane. If you click it, it gets "automatically" mounted; without clicking it is not mounted.

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. cheers, JW- -- o \ Juergen Weigert paint it green! __/ _=======.=======_ <V> | jw@suse.de back to ascii! __/ _---|____________\/ \ | 0911 74053-508 say #263A!__/ (____/ /\ (/) | _____________________________/ _/ \_ vim:set sw=2 wm=8 SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Jeff Hawn, J.Guild, F.Imendoerffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg), Maxfeldstrasse 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany SuSE.

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

At this moment the solid backend of KDE doesn't provide udisks2 support. So if an user only installed udisks2 on his system together with KDE, then KDE will not be notified of any removable disks being plugged in. Based on the upstream (KDE 4.10) udisks2 backend, I am creating a patch to bring udisks2 support also for the current KDE version in Factory. Alin already tested the backend with a snapshot of KDE 4.10 and there the correct behavior was restorted. So hopefully by the end of this week we should have an updated version of kdelibs ready that will support udisks2. Be aware that this is a switch and that the old udisks backend will not be build anymore.
