Ubuntu :: USB Devices Always Automount For Second User / Solve This?

Jan 27, 2010

Since I created second user USB devices as PTP camera, flash mass storage automounts always for the new user.
Even the second user is not logged in automount does not work for main user. When I log in as second user (with device plugged in) it is mounted automatically after log in.

What can I do with this problem?
I would like to access devices from each user (not necessarily at the same time).
How can I configure it?
How can I "remount" device to my current user without switching into the second one (it's someones else account)?

Ubuntu Installation :: USB Devices Won't Automount In 10.04 Lucid?

May 3, 2010

When a USB device is attached to the laptop 10.04 does not automount the device. i.e. the device, be at an external drive, memory stick or iPod does not display with the correct icon on the desktop.

However, if one looks under Places|Computer there they all are with the correct icons. The devices can then be mounted from there.

This issue seems to be related to these other posts: [URL]

This is really disappointing given that 10.04 was promoted on its iPod friendliness!

System: IBM Thinkpad T41; Pentium-M 1.6GHz; 1Gb RAM

Debian :: Automount Inserted Devices?

Jun 5, 2010

I don't have an opportunity to check it out now... Does Debian 6 testing mount inserted CDs/Flash-drives automatically like Ubuntu does? Or the only way to mount them after inserting is to use mount command?

Ubuntu :: Cannot Disable The USB Automount

Jan 25, 2011

My goal is to prevent gnome from mounting and opening up a file browser when any device is plugged in (USB, CD/DVD) for a Desktop User account. I am using Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook RemixI modified several settings in Nautilus (Edit --> Preferences --> Media (tab). I Selected "Never prompt or start programs on media insertion" and unchecked "Browse media when inserted".I restarted the system, but when I plug in a USB mass storage device the file browser window still appears and the device is mounted.I dug down into gconf and found the following registry keys that I believe are of interest:

/apps/nautilus/preferences/media_automount (unchecked)
/apps/nautilus/preferences/media_automount_open (unchecked)
/apps/nautilus/preferences/media_autorun_never (checked)

Has anybody run into this problem and found a solution? Modifying the keys I mentioned above worked for everyone else that has asked the "disable automounting" question (that I've found). Some very old posts mentioned gnome-volume-manager, but it is not installed on my system.

EDIT:This seems to only happen when the Netbook Launcher is started. If Netbook Launcher is removed from the list of startup programs and the system is restarted, I can insert devices without getting a pop-up window and without the device being mounted.

Debian Installation :: Systemd - Automount Windows Partition / USB Devices In Jessie

May 11, 2015

There seems to be no documentation on how to automount partitions and USB devices under systemd in Jessie. (Overall, systemd entirely lacks any useful documentation or GUI configuration tools -- all very cryptic and hidden.)

I created custom files to enable automounting. I put them in /etc/systemd/system -- this may not be the right place, but it works.

Kernel note:
This does not work under the old Wheezy kernel linux-image-3.2.0-4.

To automount my Windows partition so I can access its files, I created:
/etc/systemd/system/media-windows.mount

The name of the file must match the mount point -- in this case, /media/windows

My file notes the device and file type, plus an fmask option so all the Windows files don't seem to be executable:

[Unit]
Description = windows mount to /media/windows
[Mount]
What=/dev/sda1
Where=/media/windows
Type=ntfs-3g
Options=fmask=111
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

The file ownership must be root.root. Apparently it doesn't need to be executable.

After creating, enable with:

sudo systemctl enable media-windows.mount

and it will mount on the next boot.

I read elsewhere that the before running the enable command you should run a start command:

sudo systemctl start media-windows.mount

but that didn't work for me.

Ubuntu :: Disable The Automount For /windows?

May 12, 2010

I've recently installed ubuntu 10.04 on a machine with MS Vista. Initially, I decided to use a fat32 partition (mounted at /windows) for storage of files used by both Ubuntu and Vista. Then, I saw that Ubuntu can read/write on NTFS partitions, so I deleted my fat32 disk space.

Now, Ubuntu tries to mount that partition and during the boot of the Gnome environment, it says that /windows cannot be mounted. If I press S (skip), the desktop can be loaded normally but I would like to delete all references to that partition.

CentOS 5 Hardware :: SW RAID - Raid Devices Larger Than Total Devices

Dec 7, 2010

I'm working on a server and noticed that the to RAID5 setup is showing 4 Raid devices but only 3 Total devices. It's on a fully updated CentOS 5 system that only has three SATA drives, as it can not hold anymore. I've done some researching but am unable to remove the fourth device, which is listed as removed. The full output of `mdadm -D /dev/md2` can be see below. I've never run into this situation before.Anyone have any pointers on how I can reduced the Raid Devices from 4 to 3? I have tried

mdadm /dev/md2 -r failed
mdadm /dev/md2 -r detached

but neither work and since there is no block device listed I'm not quite sure how to get things back in sync so it's only seeing the three drives.

/dev/md2:
Version : 0.90
Creation Time : Tue May 25 11:07:04 2010
Raid Level : raid5

Ubuntu Installation :: Don't Want Automount In 10.04?

May 24, 2010

I have a problem that I can not decide for 2 weeks. Here is what happened: On my laptop, installed just Windows XP. In the past, when I installed the second system, Ubuntu 9.04 or 9.10 (for dual-boot), Ubuntu asked the administrator password for access to just Windows XP partition. I mean, that just Windows XP partitions were visible, but for the entrance (mount) needed a root password.

Now, in Ubuntu 10.04, Windows XP partition mount automatically and Ubuntu does not require the root password. I do not like it very much.

Tell me please, what do the settings at the time of installation of Ubuntu for just Windows XP that the system would be asking root password for just Windows XP partitions? Is this possible? I think - yes. Because in the past the default 9.04 and 9.10 asked for a password.

PS: I must say, as I put Ubuntu and just Windows: 1. Be installed just Windows XP, giving it 20 GB space 100 GB hard drive. </span>The remaining 80 Gigabytes leave out the implications.

Ubuntu :: USB Automount Not Working?

Nov 13, 2010

today when I inserted my usbpen in the laptop, automount did not work. I tried another pen with same result. I checked with mountmanager and both pens were working and actually mounted them manually, but automount which worked perfectly yesterday now is dead.I found a workaround installing usbmount from standard repository and now automount works again but usbpens are mounted in /MEDIA/usbx instead with their names as before and I have to open a root terminal tu unmount.

Unfortunately I use a pen for backup with unison and changing the mount position I have to modify unison profile every time, which is pretty uncomfortable.The problem May arise from the fact thgat yesterday I tried to manually compile and install the canon driver for my printer and trying to solve dependencies I had to compile and install Glib-2.26 pango-1.28.3 and gtk+2.22 from their sources.I did not manage to get a working canon driver but i may have made a mess with usb automount function.program/service is responsible for usb automount in ubuntu 10.10 so that i can reinstall or reconfigure it.
