You have been subscribed to a public bug: If a USB pendrive containing an exFAT partition is connected, Ubuntu can't mount the partition. Test has been done on a Vivid amd64 live system using today's daily ISO.
Steps to reproduce: 1- Insert an USB pendrive containing an exFAT partition 2- The partition is not automatically mounted 3- Trying to manually mount the partition via the terminal shows this output: mount: unknown filesystem type 'exfat' Steps to fix the issue: 1- Install packages exfat-fuse and exfat-utils exFAT pendrives are more and more common in newer devices, and this issue is not easily fixable by the average John Doe. We should add the two packages above to the seeds and grant default support to our users. ** Affects: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Importance: Low Status: New ** Tags: bot-comment vivid -- Ubuntu should add default support for exFAT partitions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1434603 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-meta in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
