Hi,
Since 2.22, nautilus handle the autorun/automount/etc. for lots of things. This used to be handled by gnome-volume-manager before, but upstream is changing this.
We need to patch gnome-volume-manager to not do this job too. See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=509823 This causes problem like this: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=341035 (and also the fact that two nautilus windows get opened)
I'm going to submit a package for this right now because it's a quite visible problem. But there's a problem...
Doing this means that another g-v-m patch becomes useless (I'll keep it for now, though). It's suse-autorun.patch. It checks if the media contains setup.sh or media.1/patches and run something with gnomesu if this is the case. I guess this is used for updates.
There are two ways to fix this: either patch nautilus to keep in the same way or change the relevant cd/dvd to have a file called .autorun, autorun or autorun.sh. I'd prefer the latter, since it's standardized in the fd.o autostart spec. I'm sure we can fix this for 11.0, but I'm not sure that's enough: are there any media that we can't change to this new autostart method?
Jeff Steadfast should know and could even do an upstream release for us
with your patches.
