Mounting from the command line (mount /mountpoint) works. Creating a FolderView icon (link to device) is possible, but does not work ("only root can mount"). Once again, I need the noauto because most of the time the nfs share is not accessible (the "server" not being turned on). This is with openSuSE 11.1 and openSuSE 11.2, KDE 4.3.x I did not try other distros, but I did search the Internet and have seen other messages about the same problem, it being identified as a library bug, but not being corrected.
