Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.4) Installed from: Unlisted Binary Package Compiler: gcc 3.3.6 OS: Linux In konquerors media:/ are displayed only these partitions which were mounted when konqueror was started. If I mount some new partitions using mount, they do not appear in media:/. If I unmount partitions which were mounted when konqueror was started or moununt them again, their status in konqueror changes. #cat /etc/fstab /dev/hda5 / xfs defaults,noatime,nodiratime,logbufs=8 1 1 /dev/hda1 /media/c ntfs user,noauto,ro,umask=007,uid=0,gid=28,iocharset=iso8859-2 0 2 /dev/hda9 /media/f ntfs user,noauto,ro,umask=007,uid=0,gid=28,iocharset=iso8859-2 0 2 /dev/hda7 /media/z vfat user,noauto,rw,umask=007,uid=0,gid=28,iocharset=iso8859-2,codepage=852,quiet,showexec 0 2 /dev/hda8 /media/e vfat user,noauto,rw,umask=007,uid=0,gid=28,iocharset=iso8859-2,codepage=852,quiet,showexec 0 2 /dev/hdc /media/dvd auto user,noauto,ro,unhide 0 0 /dev/hdd /media/cdrom auto user,noauto,ro,unhide 0 0 /dev/hda6 swap swap defaults 0 0 none /proc proc defaults,noauto,gid=17 0 0 none /proc/bus/usb usbfs defaults,devmode=0664,busmode=0775,listmode=0664,busgid=78,listgid=78,devgid=78,noauto 0 0 none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs mode=1777,nosuid,nodev,noexec 0 0 none /dev/cpuset cpuset defaults,noauto 0 0
I discovered this bug in SuSE 10.1 after installing the KDE 3.5.1-69.32 patch. The behavior continues under 3.5.4-xxx. It has been assigned by Novell as a regression, see: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=204376 It appears that using noauto in fstab results in HAL setting "volume-ignore = true" and that this causes Konqueror to ignore every such volume. I attempted to change the fstab permissions in various ways, e.g., users, with no apparent effect.
Thanks for this info. I've got workaround: for each partition make this as root: X=`hal-find-by-property --key block.device --string /dev/hda1`; hal-set-property --udi $X --key volume.ignore --bool false; I added this to /etc/rc.d/rc.local and works fine.
This was problem with HAL. Creating file `/etc/hal/fdi/policy/30user/99-partitions-fix.fdi` with content: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!-- -*- SGML -*- --> <deviceinfo version="0.2"> <device> <match key="volume.fsusage" string="filesystem"> <merge key="volume.ignore" type="bool">false</merge> </match> </device> </deviceinfo> should resolve problem.
