Hi, forum.

Right now my KDE 3.5.5 can auto detect usb thumb drive plug in. However, everytime when it tried to open mounted directory (e.g. /mnt/removeable), it told me that "/mnt/removeable is a folder, but a file was expected.". I tried to get kde log, the following messages were shown:

kded: KURL()

kio_file: Error during 'put'. Aborting.
kdeinit: PID 24360 terminated.

It called kio_file from klauncher but could not process directory /mnt/removeable.

Could anyone please tell me where to configure this behavior?

Thanks a lot.

When the drive is NOT mounted, is there a /mnt/removable file?

No. /mnt/removeable directory was created automatically when USB drive plugged in.
This part was OK. I could access /mnt/removeable from console successfully.

What are the permissions of the directory /mnt/removeable?

0755, owner was set to myself, and group set to root.

What version of KDE do you have?

3.5.5, as my first post mentioned.

I built the whole 3.5.5 myself (checked out from svn/stable)

I have no idea then. :-(
I assume you have a newish compiler version.
Mine doesn't mount as /mnt/removable, everything goes in /mnt
I used the Gentoo package though.

Thank you anyway.

This is a minor problem. I was just wondering if there were settings to change this behavior.
