Bug Description

In Hardy, I noticed that the new mount point for USB devices are /media/<label>____ where the number of underscores are depending on which USB port I plugged the disk into.

There are three comments:

1/ Could we make it /media/label_devicename, for example /media/label_sdb1?
2/ This new behavior affect the auto sharing for samba because if I plugged the usb disk into a new USB port then it won't be shared any more until I edit the sbm.conf file.
3/ The Nautilus "Sharing Option" facility does not save the shares info. After reboot, the new share on USB disk disappear, even if I plug the disk back into the same port.

Cheers,

When you reboot do you get an extra '_' ? I think you may be experiencing byg #212502.
