Hi,

I use gnome2-2.23.91 (compiled WITH_DEBUG=YES). The auto-mounting
works (gnome_enable is set in rc.conf) but there is no icon visible in
the desktop.

$ gconftool-2 -g '/apps/nautilus/desktop/volumes_visible'
true

My / is read-only (liveCD) so I created a symlink /media -> /usr/home/media

$ ls -l / | grep media
lr-xr-xr-x   1 root  wheel     14  5 sep 16:51 media -> usr/home/media

$ mount|grep media
/dev/msdosfs/JETDISK on /usr/home/media/JETDISK (msdosfs, local, nosuid)

>From /var/log/messages:
Sep  8 11:12:08 hostname kernel: GEOM_LABEL: Label for provider da0s1
is msdosfs/JETDISK.
Sep  8 11:12:20 hostname gnome-keyring-daemon[1521]: adding removable
location: volume_uuid_33D4_B30C at /usr/home/media/JETDISK

Nautilus can't add an icon in the desktop if /media is not a directory?

Let me know if you need more information.

Thanks,
Regards.
