You have to manually mount the drive for it to show in Nemo because it is not automatically mounting. It is not as if there is a permission issue which is preventing you from seeing the drives at all in Nemo, because you can see them after they are mounted. That's why I think this may be related to auto-mounting. I could be wrong.
Are the drives in question connected all the time? If not, that would help you with regards to what timestamps to check in logs. I suspect there would be messages in
/var/log/syslog
that might give clues as to what is happening.
I just tested this by opening syslog (it is a text file), scrolling to the bottom, and then plugging in an external drive. I then saw the message I should reload syslog because there was new information. There were a number of kernel messages about the drive and its attachment and whether it was write-protected, etc. Then at the end were these three lines:
Code: Select all
Sep 28 13:03:45 SMG-HP-6360t kernel: [21054.990958] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI disk
Sep 28 13:03:46 SMG-HP-6360t systemd[1]: Finished Clean the /media/SMG/New Volume mount point.
Sep 28 13:03:46 SMG-HP-6360t udisksd[543]: Mounted /dev/sdb1 at /media/SMG/New Volume on behalf of uid 1000
Notice the last line says it is mounted on behalf of uid 1000 (my non-root user). My Mint install only has the one admin user.
Since your drives are not auto-mounting, you made need to manually mount them in Disks and then check syslog again to get clues as to what might be happening.
