GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 104179
Disks menu should auto-update when fstab is changed
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Some programs like kudzu add items to /etc/fstab for plug and play hardware (like digital cameras). It would be great if nautilus could pick this up and update the Disks menu in the desktop context menu accordingly. ATM one has to restart nautilus which isn't very plug and playish.
I have a patch for this sitting around, it needs a bit of testing.

Mark, this was the duplicate of bug #96847 ( as it can be seen from bug id, this one is bigger ), not the other way. Also from bug #96847, Ben asks if FAM can be used for this
Ah ok, Sorry. You can swap them if you want. I just marked the other one as duplicate because dave camp has the code and he commented on this bug so it seemed more relevent.
Dave: This is in XD2 so it must be stable enough for gnome 2.3.x http://patches.ximian.com/download.cgi?object=nautilus-monitor-fstab.patch-3
fixed in cvs.
