G-v-m seems to get confused when mounting disks with many partitions. I have an external USB hard drive with two partitions, which g-v-m tries to mount as soon as the disk is plugged in. Now, several things can happen: both partitions are mounted under their respective mount points (usbdisk and usbdisk-1 in /media), only one gets mounted, or both get mounted but the mount points are reversed. This is a regression, as older versions didn't exhibit this buggy behavior; the partitions were always mounted at the same mount points. I think this started with the hal something/d-bus 0.60/GNOME 2.12 update. Here's what g-v-m logs for a case where the moint points are reversed and only one partition gets mounted: [The disk is found...] manager.c/1425: New Device: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_model_OneTouch_II [but it's not mountable] manager.c/1431: not a mountable volume: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_model_OneTouch_II [the second partition is found...] manager.c/1425: New Device: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_part2_size_3915233280 [and mounted under usbdisk] manager.c/1127: mounting /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_part2_size_3915233280... manager.c/568: executing command: /usr/bin/pmount-hal /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_part2_size_3915233280 [the first partition is found...] manager.c/1425: New Device: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_df3c7c58_063f_45e1_abdf_6c5364ec16c2 [and mounted under usbdisk (again?)...] manager.c/1127: mounting /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_df3c7c58_063f_45e1_abdf_6c5364ec16c2... manager.c/568: executing command: /usr/bin/pmount-hal /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_df3c7c58_063f_45e1_abdf_6c5364ec16c2 [uhm?] manager.c/1588: Mounted: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_part2_size_3915233280 [so it fails (the following is translated back from Spanish)] Error: directory /media/usbdisk is not empty Error: could not run pmount Volume_uuid_... is sda1 and volume_part2_... is sda2. The former used to be always mounted under usbdisk and the latter under usbdisk-1. For some reason property volume.policy.desired_mount_point is 'usbdisk' for both partitions, at least right now (I don't know if that's changed). Unfortunately some applications depend on absolute path names (i.e. jukebox-like media players) and cannot work properly with changing mount points. - -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-ck4 Locale: LANG=es_AR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=es_AR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages gnome-volume-manager depends on: ii gconf2 2.12.1-9 GNOME configuration database syste ii hal 0.5.6-4 Hardware Abstraction Layer ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.17-1 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-0 1.10.3-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libbonobo2-0 2.10.1-1 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libbonoboui2-0 2.10.1-2 The Bonobo UI library ii libc6 2.3.6-1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcairo2 1.0.2-3 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdbus-1-2 0.60-6 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.60-6 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libfontconfig1 2.3.2-2 generic font configuration library ii libgconf2-4 2.12.1-9 GNOME configuration database syste ii libgksuui1.0-1 1.0.7-1 a graphical fronted to su library ii libglade2-0 1:2.5.1-2 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.8.6-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-keyring0 0.4.7-1 GNOME keyring services library ii libgnome2-0 2.12.0.1-5 The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomecanvas2-0 2.12.0-2 A powerful object-oriented display ii libgnomeui-0 2.12.1-1 The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgnomevfs2-0 2.12.2-5 GNOME virtual file-system (runtime ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.12-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libhal1 0.5.6-4 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share hi libice6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 Inter-Client Exchange library ii liborbit2 1:2.12.4-1 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpango1.0-0 1.10.3-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpopt0 1.7-5 lib for parsing cmdline parameters hi libsm6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System Session Management hi libx11-6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System protocol client li hi libxcursor1 1.1.3-1 X cursor management library hi libxext6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System miscellaneous exte hi libxi6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System Input extension li hi libxinerama1 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System multi-head display ii libxml2 2.6.23.dfsg.2-1 GNOME XML library hi libxrandr2 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System Resize, Rotate and ii libxrender1 1:0.9.0.2-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii pmount 0.9.7-2 mount removable devices as normal ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-9 compression library - runtime Versions of packages gnome-volume-manager recommends: ii gnome-media 2.12.0-3 The GNOME Media Utilities ii gthumb 3:2.6.6-1 an image viewer and browser ii nautilus-cd-burner 2.12.2-3 CD Burning front-end for Nautilus ii totem 1.2.1-3 A simple media player for the Gnom - -- debconf-show failed -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFD+2lR823633cP2P8RAg1WAJ9FSCn+Eb+x/7B0bfjV9xzsodfvyQCgn5sT aYbXGpeQ6kKqmUFtWflTTaI= =mg2E -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
