Hello:
I am running F19 xfce on a 32bit box (fully updated at the time of this test)
I have "Applications Menu -> Settings -> Removable Drives and Media" open
Under "Removable Storage":
[checked] Mount removable drives when hot-plugged
[checked] Mount removable drives when inserted
[checked] Browse removable media when inserted
[not checked] Auto-run programs on new drives and media
[not checked] Auto-open files on new drives and media
Nothing else is checked on this or all the other tabs.
Whether I hot-plug a memory stick into the computer or plug it in before powering on, it never mounts the volume until I manually go to the icon on the desktop and tell it to "please go mount yourself"
Am I not understanding the options under "Settings -> Removable Storage"?
This is an XFCE issue, not a fedora issue. You probably should post this question
I first encountered this in F16 under xfce but figured I wasn't understanding something as I had just switched from F14 gnome where I could hot-plug
I have three Linux boxes and it doesn't auto mount on any of them, so I am not thinking it is a hardware problem to a particular machine.
This also happens with cd/dvd when inserted ... have to manually "please go mount yourself" (and, yes, the phraseology is intentional as I am rather frustrated by this)
Thanks in advance for any advice
Paul
