Description Rolle 2016-11-14 11:14:19 UTC

Description of problem:
I have attached an external harddrive via USB and an USB-Stick. When I boot the computer and login as a user both removable devices are presented (for instance with nautilus, in terminal ls -l /run/.../media/...).
But when I logout and login as another user this user doesn't get represented the remavle media (nor nautilus, nor terminal ls -l /run/.../media/...).
When I logout and login as the first user the removable devices are available.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora 24, Workstation x64, Gnome 3.20, Kernel 4.8

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. use a computer with min. 2 user accounts
2. turn computer off
3. plugin USB storage devices
4. turn computer on
5. login as an user
6. check the usb media (for instance with nautilus) -> they should be available
7. logout
8. login as another user
9. check the usb media (for instance with nautilus) -> they aren't available

Actual results:
USB storage media are only available for the user which logged in first. When changing to another user (no new boot and no unmount the usb devices) the usb devices aren't available. You could change the login as often as you want. Only the first logged in user get the usb devices.

Expected results:
Plugged in USB storage devices should be available for all users, not only the first logged in one.

Additional info:
I don't know which component is responsable for that. First I thought Gnome/Nautilus, but on the terminal I could verify that bug in the filesystem hierarchy under "/run/.../media/..."

*********** MASS BUG UPDATE **************

We apologize for the inconvenience.  There are a large number of bugs to go through and several of them have gone stale.  Due to this, we are doing a mass bug update across all of the Fedora 24 kernel bugs.

Fedora 25 has now been rebased to 4.10.9-100.fc24.  Please test this kernel update (or newer) and let us know if you issue has been resolved or if it is still present with the newer kernel.

If you have moved on to Fedora 26, and are still experiencing this issue, please change the version to Fedora 26.

If you experience different issues, please open a new bug report for those.
