[Bug 759963] Re: Volumes on cards inserted in the Realtek card reader (PCI 10ec:5208) not automounted.

 

Hi Martin,

I tested this on two affected Dell Latitude 2110 systems with the
Realtek card reader.

Prior to applying any updates, I'd insert an SD card which would be
detected as sdb (visible on dmesg) but didn't automount. I'd have to
manually go into Nautilus to mount the recognized filesystem.

After applying updates today (I did a dist-upgrade which updated gvfs
among other things) I rebooted and tested, and now when inserting an SD
card it gets detected and auto-mounted, an icon even appears in Unity
and the device's Nautilus window opens automatically.

gvfs was updated to version 1.8.0-0ubuntu3.

Let me know if I can help by testing anything else.

Bug description:
  
  SRU Justificaiton
  -----------------

  Impact:

  This bug prevents Realtek PCI SD card readers from being auto-mounted.

  Fix:

  gvfs has been updated to recognize properties named ID_DRIVE_FLASH*
  and if set to "1", will set the should_automount property to true.

  In addition, we need the following udisks rule added to
  80-udisks.rules:

  DRIVERS=="rts_pstor", ENV{ID_DRIVE_FLASH_SD}="1"

  Patch:

  Changes have been applied to gvfs and gnome-disk-utility to utilize
  the ID_DRIVE_FLASH* properties for auto-mounting purposes.

  The required udisks rule has been applied to the git master branch:

  http://cgit.freedesktop.org/udisks/commit/?id=cd0644df1279a9a04c5ff15220381a64de0224fa

  Regression Potential:

  There should be very little potential for regression.

  TEST CASE:

  * Insert a memory card in a machine with a Realtel PCI memory card reader.
    - An icon should appear on the unity launcher.
    - The volume should be auto-mounted.
    - A nautilus window should open.

  ------------------------

  
  Binary package hint: udisks

  Volumes on cards inserted into the Realtek card reader (PCI 10ec:5208)
  are not automounted by nautilus.

  I'd like to see the results of ubuntu-bugs output after selecting
  "External or internal storage devices" -> "Removable storage device is
  not mounted automatically"
