I think there may be more than one cause for this problem. My udev isn't showing mad numbers of fds left open (though the scripted test case to reproduce the problem noted above by Martin Pitt *does* cause an increase in open file handles for udevd).
WRT bug 466275, which has been marked as a potential dupe of this one, I have the same experience -- running palimpsest causes the removable drive, on next insert, to be recognised by gnome / gvfs / whatever is ignoring the drive. However, inserting the drive *does* produce device nodes -- and it's my understanding that that is part of what udev does? If so, then there's something else which is causing the drive(s) not to appear in the Nautilus places bar. Interestingly enough, other file managers (Dolphin, in particular), *do* see the drive as an unmounted volume which it will mount when the item is clicked. -- devices not detected -- too many open files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/463347 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
