Help with Device Auto-Mount
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.

As I understand it, the GUI is for removable media like USB drives. Are you trying to auto-mount a partition?
It's a SATA connected NTFS HDD. It appears under the
Attached Devicessection.I used this guide from Bazzite, so far no issues
Yep the guide modifies
fstabwhich works. The KDEDevice Auto-Mountworks fine on regular Fedora, so it is probably just incompatible with Atomic/Immutable. I'll open a bug with KDE
