I had the same problem.. I did the following.. First i needed to disable the Xfce Mounting System ( because i'm using gnone-mount) >>settings >> settings manager >> file system >> advanced or in Thunar Edit >> preferences >> advanced Enable Volume manager ( let disabled) , cause you're using the gnome system and not the Thunar system . Reinstallthe gnome-mount sudo "apt-get install gnome-mount" I guess you you need to install Pmount package "sudo apt-get install pmount" Now you need to configure the gnome-mount alt+F2 and run gnome-volume-properties After that , All Volumes Mounting and running well !! NOte one thing : The Partition could not be NTFS ! I Hope that works for you as it works for me ! **** Sorry my Ugly and bad English I Am brazilian and i'm learning to speak english as i can ! <div>2007/4/8, Joachim Ziegler <<a href="mailto:codingstone@codingstone.de">codingstone@codingstone.de</a>>:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Since 2 or 3 days, I have new icons on my desktop showing a hard drive and being named such as "3G disk", "6G disk", ans "WIN_SYS". When I click them, I get the message "could not mount 3G disk. child process gnome-mount could not be executed (no such file or directory)." Can anyone tell me how I can get rid of these icons?
