Description Klaus Möllenhoff 2007-06-04 10:19:23 UTC
hi
i updated my fc6 to f7 and when i attach my usb harddisk it will not been
automounted until i remove gparted. i think its the same like bug 215657 but it
is closed.

with gparted installed my usb harddisk is not automounted.
when i remove gparted everything works.

dmesg output before removing gparted:

usb 5-5: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4

mounting manually works fine..

gparted was in Fedora Extras before the merge.  The bug component lists have not
been merged yet, so if you report something and it's not in the Fedora Core
list, look in Fedora Extras.

Hi Klaus,

Can you check that you don't have the file
'/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/gparted-disable-automount.fdi' on your system after
the upgrade; if you do, please remove it and you should be fine.
However in the absence of that file, it is a 'feature' of gparted to disable
auto-mounting while it is running (to prevent possible data corruption). So
having gparted installed, but not running should not prevent your sbd drive from
auto-mounting, can you please confirm that?

Hi

I removed gparted with
yum remove gparted 
and reinstalled it with yum and everything were fine. i don't have the file but
i don't know if it was there before i removed gparted.
no i'm not able to reconstruct the bug...
