Does not detect hotplugged storage device

[Shane Pearson]

I saw a similar post with the exact error. That person was told to submit a bug.

EeePC 1000 HE
2.0 gig mem
intel atom N280 @ 1.66Hz
Graphics unknown
os 32 bit
disk 79.3 GB

Just upgraded to 12.10 from 12.04 and none of my usb thumb drives work in Ubuntu anymore. My usb mouse works ok, but no kind of usb thumb drive. Same error for the built-in SD card reader anything plugged in gets the following error:

Unable to mount "name of drive"
Adding read ACL for uid 1000 to 'media/bocephus' failed: Operation not supported

No icons for the devices show up on the Unity dock. But there is blank space on the dock where the icons should be.. Hoving over with the mouse causes the device name to display, but clicking on it does nothing..

Thanks,
Shane

Quick and dirty fix - created /media/$username directory, owned by $username. Now disk is mounted automatically as /media/$username/$diskname.

I figured it woldn't hurt to try Roman's quick and dirty fix. Not sure whether I was suppose to actually create the directory with my username or the actual "$username". I created one with my username and chown from root to my username.

But it works!!! My drives mount in the /media/"username"/ directory

I still have icon issues, but I'm happy usb drives mount now.

[sompoch_ubuntu (mjko68)]

created /media/$username directory by manual.

It's work. Thank you
