Troubleshooting
Problem: I don't have permissions to mount/unmount/unlock a device.
Solution: See Permissions.
Problem: I can't modify files on my NTFS device.
Solution: Please install the ntfs-3g driver.
Problem: Directories created by auto mount don't get deleted at shutdown, drives will be mounted to numbered directories next time (#104)
Solution: This can't be fixed from udiskie: udiskie is a simple userspace client for udisks and does not have the permissions to delete the old directories or define the mount location. This should be fixed in udisks.
Workaround: Make /media a tmpfs directory, so its contents will get
deleted at every reboot. Add the following line to /etc/fstab: tmpfs
/media tmpfs nodev,nosuid,size=1M 0 0
Problem: If there is a significant (30s-60s or more) delay before mounting devices, it could be due to libnotify trying to start a notification daemon but not having one installed.
Solution: Start udiskie with notifications disabled (udiskie -N or set
notify: false in the config file), or install a notification daemon.
