On my SuSE 10.0 system, when I insert a USB flashdrive it mounts
automatically. However, before I modifed fstab, only root could unmount the
drive. I figured out how to modify fstab by looking at the last line of
mtab when the drive was mounted. That line is:
/dev/sdb1 /media/usbdisk subfs rw,nosuid,nodev,sync,fs
=floppyfss,procuid,utf8=true 0 0
Thus, I added the following line to fstab:
/dev/sdb1 /media/usbdisk subfs noauto,fs=floppyfs,rw,users,sync,utf8=true 0
0
Now, any user can unmout the USB drive. I was pretty proud of myself.
HERE COMES THE PROBLEM:
I have another USB flashdrive that gets mounted as a /media/PUBLIC rather
than /media/usbdisk. (I think the FAT volume label of the drive is
"PUBLIC".) Since this doesn't match new new line in fstab, only root can
unmount this drive.
Can I set things up so that an ordinary user can unmount a USB flashdrive no
matter what "mount as" directory name it has?
QUESTION 2:
Does anyone know how to set the mouse pointer focus policy in KDE so that a
window becomes active just by moving the cursor over it? I don't want to
have to click in the window to type in it.
