autorun.sh ignored after automount after Jaunty upgrade

[brianary]

In previous versions of Ubuntu (Fiesty, Hardy, Intrepid, at least), I could plug in a flash drive that had an autorun.sh file in the root, and it would prompt me to run it (see the Desktop Application Autostart Specification (http://standards.freedesktop.org/autostart-spec/autostart-spec-latest.html#mounting)), the drive had an Open with Autorun Prompt context menu item, and nautilus showed a similar button when viewing files on the drive.

After upgrading to Jaunty, all of this went away, and I can't find a way to enable it anywhere. Is this a plugin, setting, or package I need to locate?

I experiment the very same issue; did you find a solution?

[brianary]

Nope, there has been no answer yet. :(

I'm also looking for a solution to this. Did you ever solve it?

[brianary]

Nope. No answer yet.

Got the same problem. That is frustrating. I had a good use for the autorun feature like the other ubuntu users on the previous versions.

A bug was posted by someone on launchpad - sorry, forgot the link, - but it has been given a low priority status with little prospect of being resolved.

Shame.
