usb memory stick mounted on /media/usbdisk, but loaded as media:/sde1

[David Rasch]

Version: Breezy

Not sure about the package above.

To reproduce:
1. start kde
2. plugin usb device
3. see media:/sdX1 load and fail
4. try media:/usbdisk (also fails)

current behavior: usb mem stick not accessible through media:/ ioslave
expected: accessible, and mounted transparently as available in Hoary

[David Rasch (rasch)]

just reproduced this on another Breezy system.

To clarify the "current" result is probably better phrased as this:
Memory stick not browsable from popup after device-inserted.

Filing a separate bug for the fact it doesn't show up in "media:/" at all.

[David Rasch (rasch)]

not completely sure if this is just related to or a dup of #10666

[David Rasch (rasch)]

found out this evening that it doesn't always mount as /media/usbdisk, rather
it's related to the label of the vfat pertition on the usb flash drive. Either
way, it still doesn't work and opens as described in the first set of steps.

we're getting somewhere. I did an upgrade tonight to the latest on
archive.ubuntu.com and find this new "current" behavior:

step 1 and 2 are the same as above.

3. see media:/sda1 pop up and succeed
4. see media:/sda1 pop up again and succeed (there are now two open)
5. The following shows the relevant mounted filesystems after doing this:
/dev/sda1 on /media/usbdisk type vfat
(rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,quiet,shortname=winnt,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=077,iocharset=utf8)
/dev/sda1 on /media/sda1 type vfat
(rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,quiet,shortname=winnt,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=077,iocharset=utf8)

As you can see, it actually gets mounted twice.

Expected:
only mounted once, only popup once.

Fixed in current kdebase.

I can confirm this problem.
It did not exist in kubuntu RC1 (!)
but it does in the release version.

Here too, It gets corectly mounted at /media/sda1 but kde does not see it using
media:/, although it does get notified and tries to open a konq window to
media:/sda1 but of course fails.

It shows the same problem here? Some dbus-qt packahge missing? Previous dbus-qt-1 was removed due to conflicts.
