Just FYI this bug is still in a 12.10 distro update done as recently as 48 hours ago through Update Manager.
This was a distro update to a "Ubuntu Studio" install of great vintage. A USB card reader with a CF card inserted would appear in Nautilus but clicking on the card generated the "Adding read ACL for UID ..." error. As per above saying 'sudo mkdir $USER' in /media/ (and for good measure saying 'chmod go+w ./$USER') solved the problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1048059 Title: Adding ACLs to /media/$user does not work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1048059/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
