USB media is not automounted

Hello, I have a problem. I loggin into KDE or GNOME as a root to secure that I don't have group problems. On the both Desktops, USB storage devices are not automounted for a few days (maybe 1-2 weeks).
Why? What's the matter and how can I solved it? My system is fully up2date.
Greetings

I have hwd 5.2, all my system is full updated
hal is on my array:
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng !network hal hwd @alsa ipw3945d dhcdbd networkmanager fam !autofs @laptop-mode !entranced !netfs !gdm 915resolution samba kdm crond)
Automounting worked until a few days...
Also kernel detects it, cause I can mount it manually.

[SOLVED] My usb drives will not automount

Hi!
I've installed a basic Arch system using XFCE4.
My USB disks and stick will not automount when I insert them. I have added myself to the usual groups.
Manual mounting works however...
What could be the issue?

USB media device not working properly

Hello, I have a USB surround sound device that I cannot seem to get working properly. The audio works for the front speakers but will not work for the center or subwoofer. I have gone into the midi/audio device and switched it to multichannel, and it still wont work. The weird thing is that when I test the center and subwoofer speakers under the multichannel settings they respond, but when playing audio I can't get them to work. Any suggestions?

I have formatted and installed Windows 7 64bit and USB's were working!!
Updated and now they don't again?
Its going out the window soon!!
Could the firmware update play a part? Am I able to go back to the older firmware?

Format and Partition Task Sequence Not Working As Exprected When Using USB Media

Task looks like this.
Had been working on PXE based task sequence, but when I use USB media, it only makes a single partition that is around the size of the USB thumb drive.
How does this need to be changed so that it makes a C drive partition that is 80% of the total local disk space and a D drive that uses the remaining disk space when using USB boot media?

If you choose to create a "custom" partition configuration like the one above, then you are responsible for creating any extra required partitions like a BitLocker boot partition.
Additionally, if you are deploying on a uEFI machine, then you will also need to create the correct uEFI partitions.
Generally I discourage creating extra partitions.

External USB HD does not work with HAL:

External USB HD does not work with HAL:
From the last 10 days the HAL auto-mount with ntfs-3g file system of my external hard drive does not woks.
But the manual mount procedure with the command mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb* /mnt/XYZ works.
I've followed the instructions in the wiki: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/HAL and the system has worked up to the last kernel or HAL update.
My fat32 usb-stick works without any problem.

I have done the following:
Downloaded the patched hal version.
used makepkg in /abs/local/trunk/ to create a pkg for pacman
used sudo pacman -U pkgname to install it.
used sudo nano /etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi to create the fdi file with the following content:
saved the file and removed my ntfs entryes from fstab and rebooted. and still there is no automount off ntfs partitions.
have i done something wrong?
br fjodork
WARNING: what follows is a guide of what did work for me, I'm still in an early stage of learning linux, so please correct me if anything of what follows is wrong/dangerous/stupid. As I said, this worked for me, it's not pretty, since I was learning each step on the fly and I'm sure there are better ways to do this.
So fjodork, you seem to have done the the necessary steps, though i couldn't get it to work until i first removed hal without dependencies
pacman -Rd hal
it will give you some warning about the dependencies, ignore it since we are reinstalling hal in a few steps.
First i tried to follow Raymano's link, obviously it showed me nothing in the browser so I thought it might be a broken link.
So I downloaded the source tarball from here http://hal.freedesktop.org/releases/hal-0.5.10.tar.gz
unpacked it changed the /tools/hal-storage-mount.c as per Milfadoodle's instructions.
at first I tried to compile directly from source, the process would finish without a glitch though after reboot nothing changed, as if hal weren't
installed, i guess there were issues with paths. anyway read on
Then repacked the source in tarball, copied it to /var/abs/extra/system/hal and modified the PKGBUILD as follows
makedepends=('pkgconfig' 'gperf')
options=('!libtool')
install=hal.install
source=(${pkgname}-${pkgver}.tar.gz #removed url so makepkg looks in the current directory for the tarball
hal
hal-policy.patch
cryptsetup_location.patch
hal-0.5.9-hide-diagnostic.patch
ntfs3g-valid-options.patch)
md5sums=('6641c30a27c00485c6accac5110ff911' # replace with md5sum of your package's sourceball (run md5sum filename)
'882f67668cb14a0a9e4a27ef22278027'
'5ba8b610aa9763a5f42b9f7cbd7a86ad'
then makepkg (i had to add --asroot, don't ask why
and finally pacman -U hal-0.5.10-1-i686.pkg
another reboot and everything worked without a glitch!:D (yeah i know i still haven't got rid of the reboot mentality )
I have also put the policy files as per the wiki instructions.
PS: I know this is a dirty way to getting things done but as i said, I'm just starting
If anyone could comment/correct/explain this post I'd be more than happy, the automount issue was bothering me for about a month now (you'll say why do I need ntfs in the first place? well, I only recently switched for Linux as my primary OS, these are some relics of the M$ era

Recovery from USB media fails in error 10-fc12-0241

-Got a new laptop t135-s1309.
-works great.
-created recovery media on usb using the creation utility.
-to test recovery media, I ran recovery from the usb media.
-starts and carry's out recovery for a time.
-then error 10-fc12-0241 is displayed.
-I then recovery from the hidden partition on the hard disk by holding the zero key down during startup.
-this works and the machine is restored.
-by the way i shrunk the 'c' drive to 70 Gb and have a 210 Gb 'd' drive.
-the machine recovers as expected from the hard drive. I use the choice where partitions are not altered.
-I tried two different usb flash drives. One a Kingston 8GB, the other a Dane-Elec 8GB.
-I don't feel there is a hardware problem.
-I want to have recovery media besides the hard drive so I can recover should the hard disk fail or the hidden partition becomes faulty/unusable.

Probably because the recovery program doesn't support USB connected devices.

T420 USB Ports do not work after installing XP

Hello my office has been using Lenovo's for some time now but we recently purchased a T420 and installed Windows XP SP3 on it. The issue we are having is that the uSB ports do not work. I have tried every driver I can find but still no luck, can anyone help?

hey chris0277,
could you check in Device Manager and see if there is any ? or ! symbol on the USB area.
If there is, i do recommend uninstalling the drivers from it and then visit http://support.lenovo.com and update your unit

USB media docking station won't wake up pc

using the USB media docking station with Toshiba Satellite laptop. If it goes into sleep mode for more than an hour, I need to open the laptop lid in order to wake up the PC. With my old HP laptop, I could simply move my external mouse or press any key on my external keyboard to wake it up

it could be that the speakers that is having the issue. Does your coworker's laptop work with the speakers when plugged directly into the laptop?
I have encountered this problem before, when the cable was actually leaking current back through the cable that connects to the headphone port (3.5 mm jack).

This happens on 3 different computers one of which is fresh out of the box. I have read through all the threads that talk about network shares and the hidden windows 7 drive but none of these solution resolve the issue.
2 of the computers are windows 7 ENT and 1 is windows 8 ENT. This is a large image an we are using a 32GB Transcend USB 3 flash drive. Any help would be appreciated.

Yes, sadly that is what the above was referencing.
On a fresh note, while using process monitor we were able to see that it seems to fail on finding some odd registry
entries from the host machine. When those entries are added (not even sure why it needs them from the host machine) the build still fails.

PKGBUILD aborts with /usb/media/stv680..internal compiler er

PKGBUILD kernel2.6.12.2 ...custom pkgrel 1..w/downloaded patches.
makepkg PKGBUILD (with config changes in config for -custom)...
Fails with abort message: drivers/usb/media/stv680.o...:internal compiler error Segmentation fault.
Tried twice.

mpie;
The observation is correct. vmlinuz code allows the boot of the CD's kernel. The fact that such code is useable is not covered in the details provided in the archCD.
As reported in previous posts attempting to use vmlinuz, there is no internet access after the boot to arch log-in. All attempts to start the internet fail because the modules have not been loaded (numerous displays of errors during boot-up).
At any rate, the custom kernel generated through ABS after many trials does not produce a boot-up to desktop but just to log-in on vc1 which is unuseable because the keyboard cannot enter single keystrokes..repeats . This action occurred after...pacman -Syu as well when trying to upgrade to kernel 2.6.12.2.
Code is king in performing the upgrades or making changes.
When using ABS to generate a custom kernel in LOCAL VERSION="-custom", it seems that the pkgrel number is important code..."unique" is the word used in the wiki. Any number greater than the latest pkgrel number would be "unique". I suspect that the number to be entered "has to be one greater than the latest pkgrel" and is not a "unique" number.
The custom kernel has the correct config change as desired included in the kernel loaded.
I am not able to utilize kernel2.6.12.2 after many fruitless hours in changing one config line in the kernel config.
I am unable to download via pacman -Syu and get a useable kernel. The keyboard malfunctions.
I have no other ideas for the upgrade. Custom kernel gave the same result thru ABS.
Frustration rules!

Old extreme n, and usb media card reader

hey, i am trying to hook up an iogear usb media card reader, a usb memory stick, and a portable 2.5" hdd to the belkin mac mini usb hub, and the hub to the old airport extreme n base station.
the usb stick and the hard drive are recognized without any problems.
the media card reader shows up in the disks tab of the airport utility, but it doesn't show something is connected to the card reader when a card is added. it just keeps showing 0MB in all four slots.
usb hub is powered, card reader is not.
when i connect the reader to the AEBS directly i get the same result, so i don't think the hub is the problem, since it runs other two devices flawlessly.
usb card reader works fine when connected directly to any computer as well.
any ideas? is it not possible to connect a card reader to the base station?

Unfortunately not.
The only devices that work are printers, disk drives and hubs.
