OpenSUSE Hardware :: Unable To (auto)mount Devices Through USB
Feb 19, 2010
Previously, everytime I insert a USB drive it automatically mounts. But now I am getting this error:
"Unable to mount 8.0 GB Media DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken."
Also, previously my CD/DVD works properly. But now everytime I insert a disk, this is what I get:
"Unable to mount TOSHIBA
DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken."
I have many flash drives, memory sticks, card reader, and 2 mybook 1tb so i am constanly plugging in, or unplugging devices from my machine running the latest version of ubuntu (i beleive 10.04?). I remember when i use to connect a device it would mount and work right off the bat. but now, everytime i connect anything, i have to go through Disk Utility to select the drive and mount it (also unmount before disconnect). Another problem is that some times disk utility doesnt like to work (as with a few other programs). This happends every now and then and im not sure if its my systems hardware or this version of ubuntu. every now and then programs like to stop responding (turn grey) and some programs like disk utility will open up, but just be blank and not show the detected devices
My 10.04 64-bit desktop has been auto-mounting USB devices (flash drives and my mp3 player) as read-only for some reason. I had this issue happen once a while in the past, so I simply re-mounted it as rw.
Code: mike@mike-desktop:~$ mount | grep -i 36CB /dev/sdc1 on /media/36CB-D1A8 type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks,uid=1000,gid=1000,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,flush)
Booting to CentOS 5.5 works and I am able to login with all my devices mounted. When I boot from the install DVD and type "linux rescue" I eventually get the message, after attempting to have one of the screens mount my partitions in read/write mode:
"An error occurred trying to mount some or all of your system. Some of it may be mounted under /mnt/sysimage." But nothing appears mounted under /mnt/sysimage. Should I try mounting my CentOS 5.5 partitions manually at this point ?
I have a non-super user on my box which I'd like to give it MOUNT and UMOUNT permissions but I don't know how.For example purposes, the user name is "USER".I don't want to make it into a SuperUser, just give it rights to be able to issue the MOUNT and UMOUNT commands at the terminal.
I was using 11.3, everything worked fine Upgraded to 11.4, now no drives will automount. As a result applications like Nero and K3B cannot find my DVD drive. I can access the drives from an application like VLC where I can enter the device path /dev/dvd
Dmesg and tail -f /var/log/messages output the following error: 118.604577] udisks-daemon[6574]: segfault at 18 ip 00007f5597c6b990 sp 00007fffd2e65470 error 4 in libdbus-glib-1.so.2[7f5597c60000+20000] [ 118.757166] udisks-daemon[6580]: segfault at 18 ip 00007f557b302990 sp

I suspect there is a bug or incompatablitiy with HAL/dbus/udisks but I cannot track it down.
I have a Windows partition encrypted with TrueCrypt. If I start TrueCrypt (or RealCrypt) I can mount the partition through the GUI. before I encrypted the partition I used to auto-mount it at boot using fstab and it would appear in my places bar in the file managers. Is it possible to auto-mount truecrypt partitions from fstab?
I'm running OpenSuse 11.2. I've got it running mostly the way I want and it connects to my wireless internet no problem. I have a external hard-drive on my Windows machine setup as a share folder. I can mount the drive with:
Code:
mount //10.13.23.2/D /home/james/mnt/win However when I do mount like this it doesn't give my any read/write privliages on the drive. Also on a slightly different issue but still mounting related I have my HDD partitioned into four main drives (not including swap etc). They are my Windows drive, a seperate storage partition formatted for Windows, my main linux drive and a seperate parition for linux storage.
I want to have my Windows drive, my Windows storage drive and my linux storage drive all mounted on boot. I tried adding these to fstab, and they mount fine but again I have no read/write permissions. My fstab looks like this:
Lastly I would like my Windows Share drive to mount on boot but I have been advised that I would need to write a shell script for this, to do network checks as obviously I won't always be connecting to my network.
I have the above bt dongle and I am unable to get the device to scan for remote devices. The dongle and bluetooth software is recognized and from a system point of view is working. Using Suse 11.3 64bits

When I scan the blue led comes on solid and goes back to blinking afterwords but nothing is found. I did try another adapter and the bluetooth worked. BTW The Bluedevel application is real nice and works much better then the kdebluetooth app,
I have a new 64 bit workstation (Dell Vostro i7) which I usually keep running for extended periods (read; days and weeks). I have realized that the system completely ignores when I insert a USB stick (LaCie 8Gb USB Key). By ignore, I mean it doesn't get mounted, and /media/ is empty. Interesting enough if I go into YAST and probe for Hardware Information, I find my USB stick there under the USB section. There is no specific entry for the key in /etc/fstab by the way, as far as I know I don't need to specify how a USB stick should be mounted. Auto-mount, when it actually works, is perfectly fine.
I have bluetoothd,hidd,and bluez-simple-agent running. I can manually connect my if I use
Code:
"hidd --connect XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX"
However, I cannot get bluetoothd to make any sort of connection automatically. I have hidd running as a server, I see link_key_request(sba=XXXXX,dba=XXXXX) in dmesg when I click the mouse, but I get no connection.
I have servers installed with RHEL 4 2.6.9-89.0.9 ELsmp. I tried using uuid and label in /etc/fstab to automount usb drives to mountpoints that I specify after reboot. Unfortunately, it just does not work in all my RHEL4 servers. After every reboot, /etc/fstab will be automatically modified and all configurations related to my USB drives will be changed. Irregardless of whether i use UUID or LABEL in my /etc/fstab.However, it works on RHEL5. But, upgrading is not an option in my environment. I have been googling around looking for alternatives but everything seems to point back to using UUID or LABEL in /etc/fstab. Anyone has tried something that works? Please help me, thank you.
In 8.04 it was easy to adjust, but with 10.04 I've tried to set the policies for udisks with no luck. I want Ubuntu to always ask for my password when a new device/disk is added to the system. If I don't give my password it should not mount the device. What happens now is that all disks added is mounted without any question leading me to believe that the policies is ignored (by a bug) or that I've missed something. I've been through obvious setting in the graphical shell and disabled them. But if they'd been enabled the policies should have kicked in. I do think it worked in version 9.10 when I tested it earlier this year or late last year, but I was waiting for the next LTS. How may I set up Ubuntu 10.04 to make it work as intended?
I am running UBUNTU 10.04 on an X86 system 64bit. I am trying install a wireless keyboard and am not having much luck.
-My non wirelessUSB keyboard and mouse work fine. -My wireless logictech mouse works fine without adding any special drivers/packages -Wireless Keyboard (LX500, uses same receiver as mouse) does not work with standard config -Adding HIDPOINT and selecting my wireless mouse and keyboard (LX500) - wireless key board does not work. Mouse still works.Since my wireless mouse worked before HIPOINT installation (64 bit), I believe HIDPOINT is not working.
HIPOINT Does not detect my wireless devices auto, must manually select them. So I believe that there is some conflict with other drivers.Can anyone point be in a direction to look? What are the typical configuation files and drivers used to configure standard USB mouse and keyboards? What are some other software that might be installed that is conflicting with HIDPOINT?
When I installed slackare 13 it detected usb drives and cameras automaticallyow it doesn't. I am runnning a 13.0 system, not current, so I have only applied the updates in that branch (iirc including a new kernel).nowadays when i plug a device in it does not seem to be detected by HAL (i.e not in KDE).However the device is listed if you use the command "lsusb" and the computer obviously knows it has been plugged in as there is a relevant entry in dmesg.Sorry for the generallised nature of the post, but I don't really know anything about HAL or how it can have stopped working
I have just tried to mount my floppy with: mount -t auto -o uid=1000,gid=100 /dev/fd0 /media/floppy and get for response : cannot execute command '' mount -t auto -o uid=1000,gid=100 /dev/fd0 /media/floppy error 127 What is supposed to be done to get my floppy mounted?
Missing ifcfg-eth[2-5] fileset for ZNYX 345Q Quad Port 10/100 cards. I have showing in the gui network device that my ports for my ZNYX ZX345Q Quad Port card my ports are Auto eth2, Auto eth3 etc. My Motherboard and Intel cards show as System eth0 and System eth1.
There ARE corresponding entries for those in my /etc/sysconfig/network-settings/ directory, but there are not ifcfg-eth[2-5] files to correspond to these adapters. Can I just write my own files and that will do it?
How does Fedora 12/13 load these drivers into the kernel without having these ifcfg files?
I'd love to know if there is another way Fedora controls NICs / other system resources.
Something very strange has happened. For some reason when I plug in a USB device into my F12 rig up pops a error saying,Code: Unable to mount <name of device> file systemNot Authorised When I try to mount from the CLI I get, Code: mount: can't find /dev/sdb1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mstab I'm not really sure what this is telling me or what I need to do to fix it.
My CD/DVD-drive used to work when I started using OpenSuse, but lately when I try to play a CD or DVD the icon doesn't show up and I can't open the disc using vlc.
It sounds that the system tries to mount the disc over and over and I get an error message that says "Couldn't mount audio disc (in Swedish)" (if that's what I'm trying to do) and it says something about a dbus error. Sometimes nothing happens at all when I put a CD in the drive.
I'm using OpenSuse 11.2 and Gnome 2.28.2 on an Acer Timeline 5810TG.
After reformatting a usb drive with gparted, no usb stick will automount when I plug it in anymore. If the usb is in place at startup, however, it is recognized and mounted.The media will show up in fdisk and disk utility, but there is no link to it in Places > Computer. I have no trouble manually mounting, but I would rather not have to go through the hassle each time I plug in my flash stick. I am running Ubuntu 10.10 64bit
I have an Acer Aspire 3500 laptop that I'm running 10.04 on, pretty much everything works OK, and I don't appear to have any hardware problems (I've checked using Gnome Device Manager). When I plug in a USB flash or hard drive, I don't get any drives/devices to mount, although in Gnome Device Manager the USB device appears as a USB Mass Storage Device.
Running tail -f /var/log/messages produces this:
Dec 10 19:44:31 darren-laptop kernel: [ 5800.632058] usb 1-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4 Dec 10 19:44:31 darren-laptop kernel: [ 5800.765161] usb 1-3: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
This is a 'clean' upgrade from slack 13.0 to 13.1 (32-bit)To qualify: / , /home , and /usr/local are on separate partitionsand / was reformatted.When I attempt to mount a removable device - USB stick or DVD, I get the following error message:
I first noted a few weeks ago I couldn't mount my NTFS partitions using dolphin. At the time I was having problems with windows, so I thought - naturally, they are marked as dirty, no biggie-
However, I still can't mount them and I know they are clean. I get the error: "filesystem is neither well know nor in /proc/filesystem nor in /etc/filesystems" which is strange since I can mount just fine in the console using mount -t ntfs-3g.
I installed OpenSUSE 11.3 64 bit version on my Dell Laptop Studio XPS 16. My USB mouse is working nicely. However, as I inserted MTS USB MODEM, I found that device is not mounted. "dmesg" shows USB modem in sdb emulating as scsi10 drive. I tried with 'fdisk -l" which does not show the device. 'lsusb' shows the device ID. Itried to mount /dev/sdb to /media/disk after creating a directory /media/disk, but of no use.
When I plug-in any kind of usb storage device an error massage appears
Unable to mount (name of the devise) DBus error org.gtk.Private.RemoteVolumeMonitor.Failed: An operation is already pending and the window of the devise opens several times. Everything working just fine, I can store files and read them, but I don't want to close all the windows that opens-up each time I plug some thing.
I am using Opensuse11 and i have created an lvm involving two disks /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc. I have created a lvm volume group of 5 GB with the above 2 disks. The problem is it is unable to mount at boot time. It is giving the following error messages:-
mount: special device /dev/TST_VOL/VOL1 does not exist ... ...
i jsut installed opensuse kde and xfce and i cannot mount dvd/cd 's. i am using opensuse 11.3 32 bit. i added my user to the cdrom drive group but still no luck. How to get the cd to mount by jsut clicking on the dolphin icon?
been searching google and forums for about 5 hours now, and can't figure this one out, I have a server running opensuse 11.2 sharing various NFS directories, I have one laptop that is running 11.2 and I have no problem getting my NFS shares from the server.On my other laptop that is running 11.3, I had the shares working at one point, but changed things around and added a new HD to the server, now I can NOT get this thing to work, I have tried everything I could find to read on it. Started and stopped the NFS server and exportfs -a, and checked /var/logs/messages on server and nothing about this laptop (192.168.0.102 suse 11.3) trying to connect.On this laptop, I have deleted all the shares, and tried to re-add them but still get this error everytime.on server /etc/export:
