Public bug reported:
release: Ubuntu Hardy
kernel used is 2.6.24-15-generic but it might have started before.
At one point I've found that a mounted usb disk was not mounted in
/media/disk, but on /media/disk___ so I had a look at /media and found
other similarly named directories like:
/media/disk
/media/disk_
/media/disk__
/media/disk___
Of all these the first three were empty and only the last one contained
the actual disk an data.
I have noticed that this happens when logging out and then in again
while the usb-disk is still connected to the usb connector.
I have managed to restart the whole thing over after umounting the
disk(s) and deleting all the relevant /media dirs and noticed that if
the disks get umounted before logging out there will be no increase in
the number of added dirs and the last one used will be picked up, so I
reckon that the cause is that any automount created dir does not get
cancelled during log out.
A similar thing happens in Kubuntu (I'm testing KDE 4), the only
difference being the dir naming, typically disk-1, disk-2, and so on.
This happens with usb-HD, and usb sticks, but I guess it might affect
anything that gets automounted
