Dear Jeremy, Really thanks for this. It is seems to be the source of the problem. Removing the file and purging gparted solved my problem.
All the best. -arief On 7/3/07, Jeremy R. Fishman < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Do you have the unstable version gparted installed? If so, and you use hal (hardware abstraction layer), gparted installs the file gparted-disable-automount.fdi in /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy. This sets the volume.ignore hal flag on all devices that are hotpluggable. This was a very annoying problem to pinpoint, but it's not really a bug. gparted just doesn't tell you about it. simply removing the file and restarting hal makes automount work, but this may not be advisable. Personally, I removed and purged the gparted package, since I don't really need it. Think I'm going to file a bug or something with gparted, since this is a very drastic decision to make as default configuration. - Jeremy
