[Bug 237732] [NEW] Automounted usb drives don't appear on desktop in KDE on ltsp thin clients

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

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:
