Bug 500723

Created attachment 178863 [details]
Device Access Error

SUMMARY
-------

Despite Dolphin listing my *locked* microSD-to-SD Card adapter, and providing an option to view it in Partition Manager, Partition Manager is unable to access it (until the adapter has been unlocked).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
------------------

1.	~~~sh
	#!/usr/bin/env sh
	/usr/bin/sudo /usr/bin/dnf5 --refresh install -y \
		kde-partitionmanager-24.12.2-1.fc41.x86_64 \
		dolphin-24.12.2-1.fc41.x86_64
	~~~

	...then:

2.	-	~~~sh
		#!/usr/bin/env sh
		/usr/bin/partitionmanager --device $device # `/dev/sdd1`
		~~~

		...or:

	-	1.	~~~sh
			#!/usr/bin/env sh
			/usr/bin/dolphin --select $device # `/dev/sdd1`
			~~~

		2.	> Reformat or Edit with Partition Manager

OBSERVED RESULT
---------------

The SD Card doesn't appear in Partiton Manager, but does in Dolphin.

EXPECTED RESULT
---------------

The device should, at the least, *appear* in Partiton Manager, even if unmodifiable, for it would mirror Dolphin's behaviour, and demonstrate that the device itself is preventing modification, rather than Dolphin being unable to interact with it.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
