I'm on TDE R14.0.4, Mint 18 installation. If I insert any USB memory stick I get two icons on the desktop and two pop-up windows notifying me "a new medium has been detected". E.g. one icon gives hint "/dev/sdd", the other one "/dev/sdd1". One of both mounts device, the other one states "unable to open device" even if I press it first.
Same here (openSuSE Leap 42.3 + TDE 14.0.4). However, I don't see the same on my main Desktop (Debian 8 + 14.0.4).
So it must have to do with *some* configuration ... Didn't find what yet.
I would love to trade problems with you two. I never get any notification from Debian or openSUSE: http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=2780
Hi you three, welcome to the club. All my remaining linux systems are affected to some degree of "lost" device events, not limited to TDE. The problem started ~ 2 years ago and got worse ever since. As far as I tracked it down, "something" is consuming device events before they get sent to the netlink. I tried the C program from this text: https://landley.net/kdocs/pending/hotplug.txt - It does not show any notifications when an "unwanted" device is connected.
