I don't know. It used to work for me before, in Jessie, and
especially when running Kubuntu.
I get that message in both root and user level Konqueror.
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,

My 2 cents is no longer valid.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,
Michael
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.
