It seems to be that this bug started to hit me too (14.04.4). USB drives are no more automatically mounted. When I insert a drive, I'm given a popup "Unable to mount ... Not authorized to perform operation". According to Disks, x-gvfs-show -option seems to be given to mount command and it doesn't accept it (tried from command line).
What I don't understand is, why this started to happen just now? I'm sure that automatic mount worked recently (unfortunately I can't remember exactly when it worked last). Is there any workaround? Where does the x-gvfs-show -option come from in automatic mount process? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to util-linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1012081 Title: util-linux needs updating to 2.24.2 Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in util-linux source package in Raring: Won't Fix Status in util-linux package in Debian: Fix Released Bug description: Applications in the default desktop - specifically gnome-disk-utility - depend on behaviour only introduced in util-linux 2.21+. Specifically if you select "Show in user interface" in mount options, it adds the mount option "x-gvfs-show" to the mount options in /etc/fstab. Mounting of this mount point then fails because the option is unrecognised.
