Slightly tangential, but since somebody's actively fixing things in this department, could you take a look at a related bug I raised a few weeks ago?
On openSUSE 12.2, following some online update a while back (I think related to udisks but I may be wrong), a USB hard drive I have listed in the fstab no longer gets mounted at the location I specified and instead finds itself at /run/media/[username]/[device name].
I raised the issue on the forums (https://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/applications/483...) and according to a couple of folk there this is a bug / regression that should be raised as such, since what is specified in the fstab should never be overridden by desktop settings. I opened a bug report last month but so far no response at all, and I've not seen any fix come through in the updates (haven't checked for a few days). Here's the bugzilla: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=809805
This bug occurs on a 12.2 machine running xfce with the device set to automount. On my laptop with 12.3 and KDE, I have the same device in my fstab but set to noauto, and when I plug it in I can access it at the location specified in fstab. Whether that's a fix in 12.3 or a difference in KDE's handling I'm not sure.
Cheers, Peter
See Patrick's response to your question. I have an external USB HDD and I just tried that - and it mounts in /media, but I don't have it in fstab. So, you choices are: remove the HDD from fstab and do the "fix"; or do what Patrick suggests by using YaST to give it a different mount point.
