Bug Description

Binary package hint: gvfs

I'm using karmic, and GNOME, more or less up to date.

When I log in, I get a dialog window asking me to approve or reject an attempt to mount /dev/sdd1.

/dev/sdd1 is an unused partition on one of the fixed hard disks in the system, not a removable drive. It is surprising to me that the system attempts to automatically mount it for me, when I don't want it mounted.

The automatic mounting (I assume it is gvfs, please reassign if not) should only happen for removable drives, not fixed ones.
