Bug Description

Hi!

I have two ntfs-3g devices, one internal mounted on boot, one external mounted dynamically.

None of them are shown as mounted, even though they are. Double-clicking on them gives the error message that

"according to mtab, ... is already mounted".

Is this gnome-mount related, maybe???

I think it's because the hal patch that support fuse has been drop (accidentally ?) in feisty hal during update.
Could you please attach the output of 'lshal', and post the output of 'mount' to confirm this.

Thanks.

Ok, that's what i expected :

mount :
/dev/disk/by-uuid/50F0A0A4F0A09230 on /media/sda1 type fuse (rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,allow_other)

lshal :
udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_50F0A0A4F0A09230'
[...]
volume.is_mounted = false (bool)
[...]

This should be true, and it is set to false because hal didn't match it with existent partition, the current version of hal in feisty don't support volume mounted with fuse.
This feature was added long time ago in git (but there were no stable relase since that time), and the edgy version of hal was patched to get it, but it seems that the patch has been droped.

I'll reopen the old bug.
Thanks for your report
