My 2 cents is no longer valid. The auto-mount thing no longer auto-mounts.
- This system* was built ~7/25, auto-mount worked correctly then.
- AFAIK auto-mount worked correctly around 8/15.
- Last rebooted 8/26.
- As of today, 9/13, sticking in a USB drive does not auto-mount.
- Manually mounting works.
Anyone know what changed in the last month or so?
Best,

And here was I thinking that it was all in my head. Besides these problems, I
have other weird developments; like, for example, my customized mount points
no longer being recognized.
Not a big problem, usually, when things sometimes get messed up. I have an
automount script that maybe needs to be overwritten once again with my
settings; also there is fstab. But now, not only are things getting
screwed-up, not only did I have a failed hard drive that now will not mount,
but also, all my external hard drives are making up their own names for mount
points, and inserting themselves in places where they don't belong (where I
didn't put them).
I have used the same basic setup now for years and years. Suddenly everything
is upside-down.
It seems like these events may be connected to some deeper issues.

But! I know media:/ works just after sticking in a thumb drive as it
does it's auto-mount thing and then a Konqueror pop-up with
media:/{thumb-drive} in the Location bar.
my 2 cents,

Isn't it using dbus and dbus is not running for root?
I don't know. It used to work for me before, in Jessie, and especially
when running Kubuntu.
