Hello,
In opensuse-11.0, external usb drives were mounted automatically on /media/label-of-filesystem when they were plugged in. In 11.1 only a window pops up showing the "last attached devices".
I would like specific drives (that is, filesystems with labels that match an expression like /^backup-\d+$/) to be mounted automatically whenever they are attached. Any hints how to configure this?
It looks like KDE4 specific. When you open entry in Dolphin it will be mounted ie. it will be in /media directory.
We've had this question before. Opening the entry with Dolphin (perhaps through the device notifier) is every bit as lame as running "mount" from a command line. Some applications need to work without that explicit manual intervention. Or at least the mount should be automatic when they are attached. I can think of the underlying event manager - udev? - recognising the label and triggering a backup as one very practical example. Can we PLEASE have a response to this question as asked. Its been asked before and got the lame "open it with Dolphin" response before. PLEASE! Even if the reply is only "give up on 11.1 and go back to 11.0 or 10.3". -- Life's a bitch. Then you die.
