Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-mount
I used to be able to rsync music to my USB mp3 player. Now, with gnome-mount, I have three problems:
1. Case - Directories named A, B, C etc are always removed and recreated when using rsync (which thinks they are called a, b, c etc.). Fixed by using shortname=mixed
2. Times - rsync complains "failed to set times on "[...]": Operation not permitted (1)". This seems to be caused by the files being owned by root. I think maybe pmount made them owned by me, which makes the above operation succeed.
3. Permissions. The default permissions were fmask=0077, dmask=0077. Coupled with owner=root, this makes the device hard to use.
I fixed 1 and 3 by adding umask=0000,

As an additional issue, nautilus complains when I try to unmount it "Cannot remove directory".
The volume *is* unmounted, though, and the relevant /media directory *is* removed.
