Not being able to mount NTFS drives (which most external USB are these days) is a big issue, and command-line workarounds are no good for non-technical users. I see the same, it's a regression caused by an official kernel update and users should not be expected to edit /etc/filesystems. /etc/filessystems comes from the util-linux package, not the kernel package, reassigning. See also: Bug 691280 - USB hard disk formatted as NTFS is being mounted as FAT by KDE (and of course fails) in Tumbleweed (Probably just the same issue in a bug report against openSUSE Tumbleweed instead of openSUSE 11.4) *** Bug 691280 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Hm, I can not reproduce. However, I'm quite convinced that this relates to the recent update of udisks. Kay, there is missing comma after "exfat" and before "ntfs" in the patch that fixes bnc#653900. Assigning to you. Downgrading udisks fixes the problem for me. Could somebody take down that udisks update please, so it is not offered again and again? merge duplicate *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 691077 *** *** Bug 699463 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
