-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
I am encountering a major problem which seems to be related to my (actually su's) /media/ folder. # ls -al | grep media lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 2009-07-17 17:01 cdrom -> media/cdrom drwxrwxrwx 9 root root 4096 2009-10-18 21:00 media seems pretty nice, but, when a device is mounted correctly, linked, etc., and that I am able to access it with /media/, it always appear as empty. For example, let's say that I plug a `disk1' key in one of my USB ports. It is recognized, I can # cd /media/disk1/ BUT, after this, # ls -al total 12 drwxr-xr-x 3 merciadriluca root 8192 2009-10-18 19:16 . drwxrwxrwx 10 root root 4096 2009-10-18 21:42 .. and the folder is apparently empty. However, when I ls -al on another (Debian-powered) PC, the ls -al's output is correct, and there are several files. It is the same for any external DD, or any other mass storage device (that is, my non el cheapo usb key is not faulty). My first suspicion was /media's permissions, but # ls -al | grep media lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 2009-07-17 17:01 cdrom -> media/cdrom drwxrwxrwx 9 root root 4096 2009-10-18 21:00 media is what I encounter on my `faulty' computer, and # ls -al | grep media drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 2009-10-18 21:04 media is what I can read on one of my `not faulty' computers (which has actually no CDROM). The only difference seems to be in the `9' which is a `4' on the `not faulty' computer, but, although I do not know what this number aims at, it shouldn't be the cause of the problem, should it? Any help would be much appreciated. - -- Merciadri Luca See http://www.student.montefiore.ulg.ac.be/~merciadri/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Processed by Mailcrypt 3.5.8 <http://mailcrypt.sourceforge.net/> iEYEARECAAYFAkrbcSgACgkQM0LLzLt8Mhz7fACgp8cAbMGYJmSjUtQVDiXntjuY w4EAoJb1XiQFDq0sMDB1s8tIYChplpFf =aJPj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
