Drive shows twice in pcmanfm and thunar.

Mad Fish · 2010-01-11 11:51:53

I have a memory card always inserted, and it is mounted in fstab. pcmanfm and thunar show it twice, and one is correct, and other one is not usable (org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume.UnknownFailure).

It is OK in nautilus, however.
How can I make pcmanfm and thunar to work correctly with that?

If its always inserted hal with see it everytime you reboot. Then you wouldnt need it in fstab. What happens if you try to comment out the portion in fstab?

In fact the second one was the second card reader, which was empty. Anyway, why it is being displayed, if there is nothing inside?

Its being displayed because its being told to do so. Hal is used to look at your input devices and mount accordingly. I keep devices plugged in all the time and have no issues with them being there after startup and I don't have to edit my fstab for that. I only edit my fstab if i stall a new sata drive or something along those lines.

Edit: plus if you start thunar as a daemon it will automatically start your device and show you the contents on boot up.
