Bug 207049

Summary: drag and drop to unmounted medium fails ungracefully
Product: [Applications] dolphin Reporter: Rufus <rufusD>

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

Description Rufus 2009-09-11 10:21:47 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

Example as it is now:

1. I plug in a USB drive and ignore the notifier (or: I boot the PC with the USB drive already plugged in)
2. I fire up dolphin
3. I grab some file and drag it onto the USB drive's icon in the Places bar
4. some ugly error pops up ('Invalid URL', IIRC)
5. I discard the error, right-click on the USB drive's icon in the Places bar, select 'Mount medium'
6. <see 3. above>
7. dolphin copies the file (after asking me whether to copy/move/link the file, obviously)

Expected behaviour:
I want dolphin to skip steps 4 to 6 and simply mount the drive whenever some file is dropped onto it.

Thanks for the report! This has been reported already, I'll mark it as a duplicate.
