So Dolphin is behaving funny. I can't tell you if this is new or not. System Info: Arch Linux 64 bit up to date, standalone startx with i3. The devices in question are fat32 and exfat (stupid windows support...). I haven't tried formatting them to ext4 because that just isn't an option for me. 1) Open Dolphin, instert USB, device recognized! 2) Insert USB, open Dolphin, device not listed :( I can run a mount /dev/sdc1 /mount/xxx no problem. fdisk -l out: Disk /dev/sda: 223.6 GiB, 240057409536 bytes, 468862128 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: gpt Disk identifier: 6EEBD8E6-6C6B-415F-8DF2-5E635871C1E1 Device Start End Sectors Size Type /dev/sda1 2048 976895 974848 476M EFI System /dev/sda2 976896 59570175 58593280 28G Linux filesystem /dev/sda3 59570176 387002367 327432192 156.1G Linux filesystem /dev/sda4 387002368 468860927 81858560 39G Microsoft basic data Disk /dev/sdb: 465.8 GiB, 500107862016 bytes, 976773168 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0xcf4dbac4 Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/sdb1 * 2048 206847 204800 100M 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT /dev/sdb2 206848 738678783 738471936 352.1G 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT /dev/sdb3 738678784 972658687 233979904 111.6G 83 Linux /dev/sdb4 972658688 976773167 4114480 2G 82 Linux swap / Solaris Disk /dev/sdc: 7.5 GiB, 8029470208 bytes, 15682559 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x56604413 Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/sdc1 2048 15681535 15679488 7.5G b W95 FAT32 Dolphin recognized all of the partitions on my SSD and HDD, it is just USBs that are the problem. Any ideas? Thanks!
