Hey all...
I've been using Ubuntu for about a year now. I have a HP Pavilion ze5170 laptop running Gutsy Gibbon.
Up until about a month ago, my mp3 player (a Sandisk Sansa e280 in MSC mode) worked flawlessly - I plugged it in and it automatically showed up as a removable drive (two removable drives, technically - one for the internal memory and one for the memory card). However, at some point the memory card was accidentally made read-only, a problem which took me hours to get to the root of, and in the process I messed something up badly enough that it wouldn't mount at all. Then, after a couple more hours, I successfully mounted it manually, and naively hoped that it would somehow "save" those settings and return to automatically mounting whenever plugged in. No dice. How can I make it mount automatically again?
Thanks,
- Ethan
