[SOLVED] gnome / thunar won't automount MTP / USB

Hello!
I was able to figure out that things would mount correctly in Thunar when I did
dbus-launch thunar
but then everytime I start thunar with that the gvfs processes keep stacking and starting new ones over and over and I end up with like 200 of them running. so I guess how do I get it to just launch all of those once? I've probably broken everything trying to get this automount stuff to work...

I have (of course) but I find myself in a circular situation apparently. 'logind' is a systemd thing and as you can see from the above thread I'm trying to switch to systemd but am having problems. So until that issue is solved I could use other suggestions...

  • [SOLVED] Gnome Mplayer Won't Work

    I have Gnome mplayer and gecko player installed on my maching with the mplayer-mt Aur package.  Gnome-mplayer won't play any files and just says "Stopped" on the bottom.  Can't figure it out, I've tried re-installing it and the regular mplayer package too without any luck.  Anybody know what the problem might be?

    Deleting the gnome-mplayer folder did the job.  It works now thanks.
    The only thing is, if I change any settings whatsoever in gnome-mplayer preferences, it stops again.  I guess I'll just stick to all the stock settings...

  • [SOLVED]Gnome Wayland won't start

    Hello everyone.
    I was hoping to try out gnome with wayland but i have problem. I normally install gnome-shell package and dependencies from official source with gdm, than i follow Wayland thread on ArchWiki, XWayland-git installed so is mutter-wayland. I normally kill Lightdm and start GDM with systemctl but when i choose Gnome Wayland session screen blacks out and i am after a few seconds on GDM screen. GDM starts diffrent sessions mostly with no problem (but session chooser not always appears and  after fail to login to Gnome Wayland it have problem with different session- however not always, it's basically random). If it matters- i have Intel iGPU 2500 with Asus UEFI board- rest is not relevent. My primary desktop is XFCE with lightdm but in past I've got almost every desktop and maybe wayland doesn't like some files on my hard drive.
    Peace.

    Yes. Everything appears to be right in place.
    Edit. Never mind. I've reinstalled gnome and wayland packages and it works like charm.
    Thread solved.

  • [solved] gnome-keyring won't save the passphrase for ssh-keys

    Hello,
    I'm trying to use the gnome-keyring to store the passphrases for my ssh-keys in gnome-terminal.
    I started to generate my ssh-keys as described in this article.
    After that I transfered the key via "ssh-copy-id" to my other computer.
    Then I connected to that computer via nautilus and stored the passphrase. Now it is no problem to connect without typing in the passphrase again.
    When I try to connect to that computer via a gnome-terminal ssh asks every time for the passphrase.
    I tried a lot of things, but I can't solve this issue.
    Does anybody got an idea how to tell the gnome-keyring that it should store the passphrase for connections via terminals?
    Any help is appreciated Maybe I just don't see the solution, but I'm still new to ssh.
    Thanks in advance!
    David

    Hi alexcriss,
    I tried to open the terminal from the application menu, but it didn't help.
    I searched the forum for "GDM keyring" and I found a few topics dealing with similar problems, but I couldn't find a solution.
    I have forgotten to tell, that when I enter
    ssh-add -L
    it returns
    The agent has no identities.
    Typing
    ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ecdsa
    returns:
    Enter passphrase for /home/david/.ssh/id_ecdsa:
    Error reading response length from authentication socket.
    Could not add identity: /home/david/.ssh/id_ecdsa
    Maybe this helps to find the error.
    Thanks again,
    David

  • [SOLVED] Gnome 3 won't start after kernel upgrade

    I have upgraded to kernel 3.0, and now I am getting the following error when I try to start gdm:
    ** (gdm-binary:936): WARNING **: Failed to acquire org.gnome.DisplayManager
    ** (gdm0binary:936): WARNING **: Could not acquire name: bailing out
    Can anybody explain what the deal is?
    Last edited by spiritwalker (2011-08-17 16:50:44)

    theseus, thank you for the reply. I thought you can only start gnome using some kind of display manager. If I understood you correctly, I did 'telinit 5' and then 'startx' with the folowing results:
    INIT: Switching to runlevel: 5
    INIT: cannot execute "/usr/bin/xdm" <---- This line repeats 10 times
    INIT: ID "x" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
    But when I did 'who -r' I got this:
    run-level 5 2011-08-16 02:26 last = 4
    So I tried to start X wich resulted in the following:
    http://i.imgur.com/yydcd.png
    http://i.imgur.com/RNapr.png
    http://i.imgur.com/NnFaM.png
    Also, arch is installed in a virtual box, so I didn't install any video drivers like nvidia.
    Thanks
    Moderator edit:
    spiritwalker, please do not post pictures of this large size: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fo … s_and_Code
    In this specific case you could have made use the log files in /var/log and posted the relevant info in [ code ] tags.
    Besides, this way you will get used to work with logs, which is mandatory in Arch, imo.

  • [SOLVED] GNOME 3 won't load after adding networkmanager

    Hello!
    Just did a fresh install on a HP42-475DX system, did a -Syy/-Syu, installed xorg, xf86-video-ati, telepathy, and gnome. Everything installed fine and I was able to log into Gnome with no issues.
    While trying to get wireless working in Gnome (and have an applet appear in the corner), I installed network-manager-applet, removed network from daemons and replaced it with networkmanager, and then rebooted. My boot sequence goes all the way through loading gdm and then the screen goes black. It's still backlit, there's just nothing displaying. ctrl+alt+f1 does not yield a terminal for me to log in with.
    Is there something I'm missing and/or screwed up?
    Thanks for your help in advance.
    Czar.
    Edit: Booting into live environment and removing networkmanager from the daemon array allows me to log into Gnome.

    Caligo, thanks for the reply! I don't specifically have network being blocked right now. Should it be? Right now, my DAEMONS array looks like this:
    DAEMONS=(syslog-ng dbus ifplugd netfs crond gdm)
    wonder wrote:paste ~/.xsession-errors
    wonder, I could not locate that file. When I do a ls -a to print my hidden files, the only one I have is .bash_history.
    Thank you both for your help. Have a good one!
    Czar.
    Edit: Caligo, you nailed it! I added !network to the DAEMONS array and it came up perfect.

    Seems like a font issue, try this:
    gnome-terminal --tab-with-profile=Default
    Else you can try editing the settings using gconf-editor.

  • [SOLVED]Gnome-shell won't start

    Hello. I cant start Gnome-shell and it force to Fallback. In addition to, in the Fallback mode, i can't change any parameters of gnome.
    get this message when run the command:
    gnome-shell --replace
    (gnome-shell:18571): Gdk-WARNING **: The program 'gnome-shell' received an X Window System error.
    This probably reflects a bug in the program.
    The error was 'BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)'.
    (Details: serial 132 error_code 1 request_code 139 minor_code 66)
    (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
    that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
    To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment
    variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
    backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
    I have ATI Graphic card and installed Catalyst 12.4
    How can i fix it?

  • [SOLVED]Thunar refuses to automount

    Hi there.
    My problem is as follows.
    I have a fresh install with thunar refusing to automount (mount removable drives when hot-plugged enabled) any external USB device. (All are under 1TB)
    Thunar does not display any external devices, but when I manually mount as root from terminal they show up in thunar and all is dandy.
    Installed lxpolkit and added the rule to "allow mounting a filesystem on a system device for a group"(added myself to storage group), have also tried the other rule: "Allow mounting a filesystem on a system device for any user" but without any sucess.

  • When syncing my iPhone to my computer, an 'MTP USB-device' error appears. How to solve this problem?

    When I try to connect my iPhone to my computer, it seems to be working fine (iTunes opens and connects), but still I'm getting this problem when my computer tries to install the supervisory program/driver (I'm not sure how to say it in English since Dutch is my mother language). I've made a printscreen of the error, and it's in Dutch, but maybe someone can see what the problem is anyway.
    So... It says that the installation of the 'MTP USB-device' part failed.
    The problem is that I want to put my photos on my computer, and I found these instructions (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083) to do that. But I don't get an Autoplay dialog box, caused by that error.
    Could someone please help me? Thanks in advance!

    I had the same iss - it's a known issue whereby Windows attempts to use the wrong driver to access the phone.
    BACK UP YOUR REGISTRY!!! Editing the registry can be (read: IS) dangerous and can cause no end of pain if done incorrectly.
    - To Back Up your Registry: Click Start menu and click "Run". Type "regedit". Click File, then choose export and type "iphone driver fix registry backup".
    - Click Export and let it export the the registry to a file.
    - To fix the issue: Follow the folder tree on the left to: hkeylocalmachine > system > current control set > control > class
    - Find “{EEC5AD98-8080-425F-922A-DABF3DE3F69A}” down the LEFT hand side and click on it.
    - Under the list on the RIGHT hand side find "UpperFilters"
    - Right-Click UpperFilters and click delete
    - Close the registry editor and restart your PC (without the iphone attached).
    - Once restarted and logged back in, plug in your iphone and voila!  Windows will actually choose the correct driver and you'll be in like flynn.

  • Thunar refuses to automount devices

    Hello again!
    This time I've been searching like crazy for a solution in both the wiki and the forum.
    But none of the usual ways allows automounting to work in Thunar.
    I have tried to plug in three different mp3-players and none of them shows up in the side panel.
    Quick information:
    - Installed packages: gvfs, polkit-gnome, thunar-volman, consolekit
    - My user acc is a member of the storage group.
    - I am not using any display manager
    - Window Manager: Openbox

    /etc/rc.conf
    DAEMONS=(net-auto-wireless dbus @syslog-ng @crond alsa cupsd)
    ~/.xinitrc:
    exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch openbox-session
    ~/.config/openbox/autostart:

    Dbus power operations and trash is working as they should.

  • Pod Touch 32GB MTP USB device has failed to install and can't sync.

    After updating iTunes on my Win7 64bit PC, when I plug my iPod Touch 32GB in, I get the error message "MTP USB device has failed to install" and can't sync. Yesterday, everything worked well.
    Need help, please!

    Thank you. I removed iTunes, QT, Safari and related software, then applied a Windows update and reinstalled iTunes and related software. It solved my problem and let me sync my iPod.
    Thanks!

  • Ipad4 connection MTP USB device error with Windows 7 64 bit

    I have recently bought iPad 4. When I connected to my computer through USB running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit  i got the following error message
    "MTP USB Device  failed to install"
    Please guige me

    Hello lwalbring and welcome to the Palm forums.
    Your Visor, as you suspect, does not have Bluetooth, so you must use the IR HotSync option.  Since you are using Windows 7 64-bit, I believe that you are going to have to upgrade to Palm Desktop 6.2.2 to make things work from an OS/Driver perspective.
    Since you are using such an old device, you are also going to have to download and install the PalmHotSyncSetup Utility from Pimlico.  This update turns on support for old Palm OS PDAs in Palm Desktop 6.2.2.  Without the update, you won't be able to sync your Visor with Palm Desktop 6.2.2.  The software is free and the link is all the way at the bottom of the screen.
    Lastly, if your PC doesn't have an IR port on it, you will need to purchase a USB to IR adapter.  Some laptops still have IR ports and most desktops don't.
    Once you have all the pieces, you'll want to go back to the Windows 7 and Vista HotSync thread again, and follow the directions for setting up and configuring IR HotSyncs.
