Title:
  Automounted usb drives don't appear on desktop in KDE on ltsp thin
  clients

Status in Linux Terminal Server Project:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Not sure if this should be reported under ltsp, kde, kubuntu-desktop,
  or what.  This is on Ubuntu 8.04 with kubuntu-desktop and ltsp5
  installed.  It only occurs on LTSP-based thin clients; when logged
  into KDE on the server it shows the icon on the desktop.

  On a thin client if you log into KDE and plug in a usb drive, it
  mounts it under /media/username/drivename, but it doesn't create a
  desktop icon for it.  I notice that if you plug one in while under KDE
  on the server, it just mounts it under /media/disk.  If you use Gnome
  instead on the thin client, it mounts it under
  /media/username/drivename, but it does show an icon on the desktop.

  I wonder if it doesn't have something to do with this bug, since I'm using ldm on the thin client but gdm on the server:
