I have Mandriva 08 and I can't get a MP3 player or a Flash Drive to mount. If I manually mount the Flash drive the "Computer File" won't create a file so I can access it. I get no desktop icons and I have checked the box in "config-whatever", The Flash Drive will appear in HardDrake but the MP3 player will not. The MP3 player will appear in the "Computer File" but will not manually mount.
View 2 RepliesI recently bought a Freecom 500GB network drive for backup and sharing files on my home network.I can access it via wireless on my Vista laptop and read/write to it with Dolphin and Krusader in Mandriva. I can also use the sync function in Krusader but it is so slooooow! Therefore I want to use Grsync but for that the drive needs to be mounted, that is where the problem lies!

View 3 Replies View RelatedI bought a netbook (VPC) which is basic netbook with limited features. It has a basic version of Linux (Linux 2.6.24 platform). My instruction booklet says it does not support Flash (player): Flash - The current browser does not support any Flash players. This will prevent viewing some web pages. Certain major websites have a simplified version on the server which will load up. When I try to play games in flash, it does not work either. Browsing on the web also is very limited, I only see mobile (cell phone) versions? (the instruction booklet does state this though) I cannot even put favorites? Is there a way that I can get Flash installed or a better browser? So I can play games that are on Facebook, etc.? and view websites like a "normal" human being should be viewing them on the web?
This is what I figured out so far:
Wi-Fi
Onboard USB and Ethernet ports
An SD reader
7″ TFT display with an 800X480 resolution
2GB of internal storage
100 MHz processor
Linux with preloaded programs such as internet browser, spreadsheet, word processor, a media player for movies, music and pictures, e-book reader, dictionary, calendar, PDF reader, email, chat, calculator, file manager.
I just installed Fedora 11 on my Sony Vaio laptop. I couldn't stand Windows Vista any longer. I installed Fedora 11 just fine with no issues. But I seem to be having trouble installing programs such as Adobe Flash Player, Reader, Limewire, Java pluggin, etc. Everytime I try to install these, it says for example "Could not display "/home/blackout87gn/Download/jre-6u16-linux-i586-rpm.bin". This was for the Java file I downloaded. I made sure that all these files I downloaded were for Linux. So being the newb that I am, can someone point me in the right direction on how to install these applications? Also what does .rpm .bin .deb and .tar.gz represent?

I usually unmount it twice using right-click of the mouse, then it mounts itself back, so i have to unmount it again.. Is there any way to control this? How do i setup the auto-mount option for USB flash drives?

View 9 Replies View RelatedMy Fedora does not auto detect a flash drive if I get to attach it with the OS already running. I still have to make a reboot and attached the drive right from the start in order for it to be detected/mounted.
Unlike In Mint 7, Ubuntu and XP, it automatically detects the flash drive as soon as it is attached.
make my Fedora detect the flash drive so that I would not have to reboot everytime I would use it.
FWIW here are some outputs:

I wish to gain access to a USB flash drive. It is old and I forget how small. Could somebody give me insight into a way to mount it if the security code isn't letting me access it via /dev/sdx?
Code:
I had to unmount a flash drive in GParted to format it, now I want to mount it again so I can use it, GParted does not get me a "mount" option and it does not automatically mount. How do I mount it so I can use it to make a Fedora Live USB? I am using Fedora 14 KDE BTW...
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have been using Linux for a while but I am more used to Debian based distributions. With distributions like Ubuntu, I have been able to get my flash drives to work instantly. However, I have no idea how to mount one in OpenSuse. I do not have much experience in configuring stuff like this because distros usually do this for me.

View 5 Replies View RelatedUsb flash drive mount point not found.
see screenshot.
I recently upgraded to Gnome 2.30 and now usb drives don't auto-mount and show-up in Nautilus as a device.
I can mount the drive manually, but it would be nice if this happened automatically when I plugged it in.
I'd like to make regular backups of my flash drives, but I don't plug them in regularly. Because of this, I can't just use a scheduled backup application to back them up. Does anyone know of an incremental backup application that will automatically run backups on media as soon as it's mounted?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to setup my ubuntu machine to automatically log some data I am trying to collect and write the data to a flash drive. I have everything setup so that when the machine boots up it starts that logging process. The problem I am having is that sometimes (not always) ubuntu creates a directory with the same path that I expect my flash drive to mount to i.e., /media/data/ then my flash drive instead mounts to /media/data_/. I need to know the path of the flash drive so I can store my data on it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm a NOOB to CentOS and Linux in general. I've been trying to find a way to mount my USB flash drive (FAT32) so I can see my files. I've been told that I need to add a USB controller. My CentOS is running as a VMWARE guest in WS7 loaded on a Vista host. My physical hardware is a Toshiba Satellite notebook. I've been told I have to add a USB controller before I can mount. Can anybody give me some direction with this?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have two questions regarding auto mount function of Truecrypt. First question:
I want to automatically mount my flash drive encrypted by Truecrypt using a keyfile whenever I plug the drive. How can I do this? I use Ubuntu 10.10.
Second question:
As I do not know the answer of my first question, I currently use following command in a startup script to mount my encrypted flash drive automatically at every system start-up.
Quote:
/usr/bin/truecrypt -k ~/keyfile --auto-mount=favorites
My problem with this method is, Truecrypt always search for the drive in the same path saved in favorite drives list, e.g. /dev/sdb1. However sometimes there are more than one flash drive plugged to my computer and my encrypted drive's path changes. In such cases Truecrypt cannot mount my encrypted drive because it cannot find the drive in its path.
As a workaround I tried "auto-mount=devices" parameter. It is slow because it checks every mounted drive, and some of them external hard disk big in size. Moreover it does not recognize any mount point parameter. I'd like to mount the drive to the same mount point every time.
Quote:
/usr/bin/truecrypt -t --auto-mount=devices -p "" -k ~/keyfile /media/MyMountPoint
The command above mounts the drive however it is slow and to the destination of "/media/treucrypt1".
Also I have all files it asks for installed including dostools..Btw I used usb creator, then went to gparted and did something. The system is fat 32 now but with same message, not including ext4 part. Just the mount point message, and something about dosftools and mtools, wihich also are installed.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI always have a problem in simple user mode when I insert a USB key. Can't mount, can't open with file manager. I'm obliged to open a simultaneous root session, to do what I want to manage the usb key.
In my user manager, I don't know wich group I have to add to this simple user (it's me) so I am allowed to manage the usb key.
I would have never thought something so simple could be so difficult. I am trying to install the mp3 codecs for rhythm box music player and I can't find the commands to do so online or anywhere. I did this no problem in fedora 12. I just don't know where to look for Mandriva how to's. Would I just update the gstreamer plugins to get the mp3's to work?
