Hi,
I have recently been having USB removable drive problems, on plugging in my
camera or USB pen drive the device notifier does not pop up, if I click on the
icon no devices are shown.
Sometimes the pen drive can be accessed and it shows up in the device notifier
but I am asked for my root password:
"Authentication is required to mount /dev/mapper/mpathbp1"
All was fine about a week ago so I guess some update has caused
this problem. Any ideas which packages are related to this as I am puzzled to
what it could be.
This is on F18/KDE-4.10
The devices are seen in dmsg and in kcmshell4 kcmusb..
CD/DVD drive is fine and appear in the device notifier once a disk
is put in.
It might not be KDE related, but I'm not sure. Is anyone else seeing this?
I'll pop over to bugzilla and kde.bugs to see what I can find later on in the
week.
In cases such as this the first thing I do is "tailf /var/log/messages" as I
plugin the device to see if the kernel is detecting anything....
