Description Peter Möller 2015-11-14 21:02:31 UTC

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Added an usb-stick to the slot


Actual Results:  
- dolphin shows the new device in the left column
- knotifier will not popup nore list the new device


Expected Results:  
- dolphin will show the new device in the left column
- knotifier will popup in the right corner of the (lower) control bar


Some hints:
- if i add/remove the stick , then dolphin will always update his column to show the actual situation
- in journalctl you can see, that all events are there

In order to give you a chance for reproducing the behaviour, her is an extract from the log (with device type and more ...)

Comment 1 Peter Möller 2015-11-14 21:13:30 UTC

I reproduced this with two different devices

- acer aspire x3200
- samsung NP-RC530_S0CDE

Comment 2 Peter Möller 2015-11-14 21:29:54 UTC

i will not do it, but maybe, you do it yourself ;-) ...

Since this bug is very confusing for a normal user,  it should be resolved with "higher" priority

sorry, deleted a line by accident:

Comment 4 Martin Klapetek 2015-11-14 23:02:58 UTC

Thanks for the report

What exactly do you mean by "knotifier will not popup nore list the new device"? Do you mean the popup with connected usb devices? The one that says "Device notifier"?

Comment 5 Peter Möller 2015-11-14 23:45:41 UTC

yes, i just did not know the correct naming, in german language it is called "geräteüberwachung". I will add a screenshot ...

Comment 6 Peter Möller 2015-11-14 23:47:42 UTC

Created attachment 95506 [details]
here you may activate the device notifier, that i am talking of

Comment 7 Peter Möller 2016-08-03 20:55:13 UTC

looking at my reported bugs, i can confirm now, that actual leap does not show this problem anymore 
=> it is fixed :-)
