Description of problem: By right-clicking on the desktop and choosing the Disks submenu it should be possible to view all mountable volumes in the PC. However if a USB memory key is inserted AFTER Gnome has started, the entry appears in fstab automatically but does not appear in the Disks menu of Nautilus. The entry does however appear in the Disk Management application under System Tools. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): nautilus-2.4.0-7 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Log into Gnome without a USB memory key inserted. 2. Check that no entry for a USB memory key appears in /etc/fstab or the Disks submenu of Nautilus desktop. 3. Insert a USB memory key. 4. Check that an entry has appear in /etc/fstab, then view the Disks submenu of Nautilus desktop. Actual results: No entry for the USB key appears in the Disks menu. The memory key can be mounted only using the bash prompt or through the Disk Management application in System Tools. Expected results: The Disks menu should auto-update with the memory key option and enable it to be mounted. Additional info: Googling for this problem suggests that a patch was available in Mid 2003 for this exact issue, but this appears not to be functioning in Fedora Core 1.
This should work in rawhide (although the ui is slightly different).
