Hi,
We've recently moved from 4:14.0.4 on Debian jessie to 4:14.0.6 on
Debian stretch and all of our users (remote displays via tdm/XDMCP) are
getting device popups when a usb device is connected (daily change of
SSD for backup for example).
How do I globally disable this?
I've tried putting a kdedrc in my global profile directory containing:
[Module-mediamanager][$i]
autoload=false
[Module-medianotifier][$i]
autoload=false
but that doesn't seem to do it.
Any ideas?

I'm on .4 atm, but on .5 there is a form with a bizillion little checkboxes
for this. I believe I got to that by a 'config' button on the pop-up itself.
On .4 there is something similar found at:
Trinity Control Center >> Peripherals >> Storage Media
Hopefully on .6 there is a similar TCC screen?
Best,
Michael

Relying on each user to go into their settings and click things just
isn't going to happen in my world :-(
Looks like a trip into TDE Source land to see what I can find. Wish me
luck!

Thanks for the replies but I'm trying to disable
the device popups
globally.
<facepalm>
I is a idjit :-(
I already had:
[Media][$i]
enabled=false
exclude=media/builtin-webbrowser,media/hdd_mounted,media/builtin-mycomputer,media/builtin-mynetworkplaces,media/floppy5_unmounted,media/cdrom_mounted,media/cdrom_unmounted,media/floppy_unmounted,media/hdd_unmounted
in my global kdesktoprc.
In the melee I'd forgotten that we'd changed to encrypted media for the
backups as part of the great update project; so appending
"media/hdd_unmounted_encrypted" to the end of that line solved my
problem.
</facepalm>
