[SOLVED] Plasma mounts USB pen drive in read only mode?
Hello everyone. Till last month I used to insert my pen drive in the USB port of my laptop and I mount it from Plasma configuration in the notification area.
Now, I don't know why, I do the same thing and I have no write access on the device, even with root user. I think for some reason Plasma mounts the device in read only mode.
How can I modify this behavoir? I don't want to mount the device manually from console. It's more comfortable to mount it from KDE with write access, but I don't know how.
Thanks.

File system errors? Run fsck.

Dead keys will be set ro by the firmware. If you cannot make even hdparm to write it, the key is EOL.
