Good point, but how does that fstab entry appear if she hasn't done updates? I suppose she might have been editing in fstab and made a mistake? If she was editing she should certainly check it out. Reading back through this thread I don't see whether Colleen tried my suggestion about a creating a new user. My thought was that some KDE config file somewhere got corrupted and a new user would not have that same issue. - Mark
