gnome 2.8 hase some changes in handling of usermounting
removerable volumes and i think that should be added to the FAQ.
1. don't use mounting points that are symlinks
if /home is a symlink to /usr/home it is important that
in /etc/fstab is the real path entered e.g.:
/dev/acd0 /usr/home/username/mnt/cdrom ...
if someone mounting to /home/username/cdrom the directory/mountpoint
will be changed to root:wheel _and_ the original (unmounted)
icon is still to see in Place Computer (of course also the cd-rom icon)
and when klicking on it nautlius claims that the device is bussy.
2. there are naming conventions of the mounting points:
(relative to e.g.: /usr/home/username/mnt/)
CD-ROMS => cdrom
CD-RW => cdrw
Memory Sticks => memstick
and so on ...
without that nautilus didn't work correctly.
i had hours with trying and trubles until figured this out... :-(
attached the gnomevfs-function where i found all the names.
3. (maybe) OT question: when i insert my memory stick the access right set
for the device created by usbd (/dev/da0s1) don't allow access from a
normal user. currently i helped my with a dirty trick:
adding to /etc/devfs.conf:
perm da0s1 0666
and to /etc/usbd.conf:
device "MEGA"
devname "umass0"
attach "/bin/sleep 5; /etc/rc.d/devfs restart"
if there is a (which i'm sure there is) a good solution that
should also be added to the FAQ.
here to see how it looks like two screenshots of "Computer":
