Mounting USB devices

Are you a Filipino?

Could you check if autoFS is installed?

If it wasn't installed, install it and reboot.

If it was installed, please, insert the usb, summon a terminal, and type the following:

$ sudo fdisk -l

And paste the output in the forums so we can look at it.

Then type:

$ sudo blkid

And paste the output.

Let's see if there is a problem with the format.

Hi

autofs was not installed; I installed and reboot but no change.

Interesting, Autofs was installed by default in Ubuntu 12.04... Ok, remove Autofs and do the following:

First, get root privileges and type this:

# mkdir /media/usb0

then:

# nano /etc/fstab

Add the following line at the end without removing anything inside fstab.

/dev/sdc1       /media/usb0     auto    rw,user,noauto,umask=0  0       0

Reboot and tell us if it works. Don't forget to acces the file manager.

I'm still in a Debian machine so I cannot check all Trisquel's system by myself... sorry

After what you said and restart => no better.

In addition, I installed usbmount and pmount, restart.

Now insert the USB key, it goes well, I see the icon on the desktop.
When I want to disassemble, against it by asking for my password, but only the first time.

If I restart again when I want to disassemble it requires password.

strange indeed. It will pass a lot of time until I have Trisquel 7 on my laptop so I can find alternative solutions, I will share them with you if I find them.

Thank you and sorry

Finally, I gave everything to the original state.

I open nautilus and in the left pane I click on the media to rise.

It will also ... until perhaps another solution.

titi,

Seems you are using Trisquel(default) desktop enviornment, where I too have encountered this problem. Try logging in using the Gnome desktop enviornment.(Click the Icon of Trisquel near to your name in login screen and select GNOME.)

By the way, I have submitted a bug report; If interested you can follow it.

Hi lap4fsf

I am with 7.0 trisquel original (recent installation).
At login, I do not have the opportunity to choose the Gnome session.

So I installed the gnome-session package and reboot.
At login, I have the choice Gnome session and session Trisquel (default).
I choose Gnome session and I get ... nothing, blocking.

Is something missing ?

Did you install the gnome-shell package too?

No, just gnome-session.

Perhaps should we add gdm ?

No, I have installed gnome-session because I do not want to use gnome-shell.

===
To test I installed gnome-shell and obviously it works well.
But I prefer Gnome3 trisquel sauce.

Is gvfs installed?
