Do you have the dbus daemon running (if you are using that method)?

yes dbus is running.

The drive I would like to show is: /media/2nd
I honestly don't know if these files are pertinent here. If need any more info let me know.

I don't think that you can give too much information when troubleshooting a problem.

As for the actual issue, I'm only basing what I say off of my past knowledge with pcmanfm and the corresponding wiki page. If you haven't already, I suggest taking a look at the "Volume handling" section on said page, particularly this.

completist · 2011-04-01 06:06:25

Nothing there changed anything. Like I said I can access drive, but I would like it to show in file manager.

Are you using pcmanfm from community respository?
If so use the the one from AUR instead.

Yes, particularly this one:

It works like I want it to now. Installed pcmanfm-git from AUR and it works great. Thanks itsbrad212 and lives2evil for the guidance.
