Mint 14 auto-open mounted volumes :s

Post by ruipedrovpa »

Hi,

After upgrade to Mint 14 from fresh installation, after reboot or start-up the notebook, the system auto-open in caja the volumes that is configured to mount.

So, i have 3 volumes to auto mount set in the installation OS menu, after restart/start-up pc it open 3 windows in caja. One for each mounted volume.

How, i can set the system to not open the mounted volumes in caja after reboot... ?

Did you have any luck figuring this out? I'm having the same problem with nfs shares being auto-opened by nemo every time i boot...i managed to fix this in nautilus a while back but for the life of me I can't remember if it was a nautilus-specific option or something in dconf i can change that would also apply to nemo

figured it out...fire up dconf-editor and change org.gnome.desktop.media-handling automount-open

Thank you sddfdds. Your solution worked for me, and I'm glad you found it. :D

I automount a half dozen Truecrypt volumes at once on Mint 14 Cinnamon to do my work, which was always blanketing my screen with Nemo windows.

Two notes: (a) I had to install dconf-tools from the Software Manager to get dconf-editor; and (b) after drilling down the org.gnome.desktop.media-handing tree, the comment for the automount-open option refers to Nautilus. Turning it off worked just as well for Nemo.
