I am trying to use the Device Auto-Mount feature in KDE Settings but it doesn’t seem to be having any effect. I have selected On Login and On Attach for the drives I’m interested in, but after rebooting they aren’t auto-mounted.

If I click on them in Dolphin I am prompted for my user password and then they get mounted.

Anyone know what might be going on or where I should look?

  • I couldn’t see any obvious errors in journalctl
  • drives are not encrypted.
  • running AuroraOS

and yes I know that I can set this up with fstab, but it would be good to understand why the GUI approach isn’t working and hopefully fix it.

    Yep the guide modifies fstab which works. The KDE Device Auto-Mount works fine on regular Fedora, so it is probably just incompatible with Atomic/Immutable. I’ll open a bug with KDE
