multiple GUI logins and mounting external drives

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

If I use the GUI switch user feature, so that two users are currently
logged into the same PC, graphically (and you can switch between them
using CTRL+ALT+F1 and CTRL+ALT+F2), I frequently find that whenever I
plug in a USB drive, or SD card, that nothing pops up on the login that
I'm using.  It nearly always pops an authentication window on the other
login.

It doesn't matter which one I'm currently using, it nearly always uses
the other one.  Surely the system knows which one is currently on-
display, and should use that one?

Boilerplate:  All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
There is no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see
the messages posted to the mailing list.

George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny,
not a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
