Hi,
I had Vista in my laptop. Made a partition, and installed Ubuntu. After that, I switched from Vista to XP. Both OS's work fine, but there's a minor problem in Ubuntu(8.04 LTS, all updates installed).
When I had Ubuntu+Vista, the Vista partition was automatically mounted when loading Ubuntu OS. Now, the partition appears on my Places links, but I have to go there with the File Browser first for it to be mounted, and only after that I can use it (ex. other programs can't access it unless I do that first), and if I don't use it in a while, it gets dismounted automatically.
Is not a big issue, but sometimes it's kind of annoying. Any ideas in how to fix this?
Thanks!
