If those are non-removable partitions, it's a bug that it did mount it
automatically before. It's supposed to be allowed only with the root
password. The right way to configure non-removable partitions is to enter
them in /etc/fstab, then they'll get mounted right at boot time as they're
supposed to.

Hmm yea. I guess I already had typed my root password in somewhere when 
I used gnome-mount. Because gnome-mount didn't ask me for any password 
when I tried mounting my NTFS partitions.


Guess that's solved then. Thanks ;)

For the ones that don't want to fiddle around in /etc/fstab, a tool 
called ntfs-config does that for you.

Yea, both are running just fine.


You can try:

mv ~/.gnome2 ~/.gnome2.old

and restart the GNOME session (logout and login).  This will reset
your desktop preferences to defaults.  You can also revert to the
previous one, if desidered:

rm -rf ~/.gnome2   (delete default configuration just created)
mv ~/.gnome2.old ~/.gnome2   (revert to the previous one)

I hope this workaround will work.

I tried what you said and indeed all settings were reverted back to 
their default state. However Gnome still didn't automount my partitions :(

 Hello List,

 I recently upgraded from F10 to F11 and after I did this, Gnome stopped
 mounting my NTFS partitions automatically. However, if I manually execute
 the gnome-mount command with the following command:
 gnome-mount -d /dev/sda1 -v -t
 it works perfectly for both my partitions.

 Now of course I can add the partitions to my fstab and have them mounted on
 boot, but this feature worked before and I'd like to have it work again.

 So does anyone have any idea (or perhaps the same problem) how to solve
 this?

Do you have haldaemon and messagebus services running?
