[Bug 121837] No automount for ntfs external drive using usb port

[Vivien Taillandier]

Public bug reported:

Here is the bug.

When I plug in a usb-stick (Sandisk Cruzer Mini) using a fat32 file-
system, Konqueror pops up, ask me what to do and after choosing to
browse the media, a new window opens.

However, when I plug in a hard-drive (Hitachi IDE 120 Go) installed in
an external box (enermax) with USB 2.0 connection, the kde deamon pops
up, ask me what to do, but after choosing to browse, nothing happen.

To enable the automount feature, I must edit the /etc/fstab file in this way :
/dev/sdb1   /media/sdb1   auto   uid=1000

Once the fstab saved, when I connect the USB port, everything goes well,
if the ntfs disk is the first to be connected, because if I connect my
USB-key first, it will take the /dev/sdb1, and an other line in fstab
will be necessary to mount the other drive.
