Hello, Walt:
I had "Browse removable media when inserted" checked. Sure enough,
when unchecked, a nautilus window opens. I also notice that two options
are checked. I don't understand what the difference between them would be:
Mount removeable drives when hot-plugged
and
Mount removable media when inserted
Thanks for asking -- you just solved two annoying problems for me :o)
An internal CD/DVD player is not a removable drive, but it does use
removable media. A USB stick is a removable drive but does not use
removable media.
A number of gnome apps are far more configurable than their settings
menu implies. To access some hidden settings you need to use the
gconf-editor utility, found in Applications::System tools::Configuration
Editor, or just type gconf-editor from a command prompt.
Navigate to apps::nautilus::preferences and look for several settings
relating to media, and experiment with those.
