Bug#353255: Different behaviour if gnome-volume-manager stopped

Hi.

If gnome-volume-manager is stopped, then the behaviour is different.

As gvm is no longer running, the device is no longer mounted, so the
icon appears when hal detects insertion, which is normal.

Now, if I try to mount it in the list of icons of nautilus, it will
get mounted, but not as something like "/media/UDISK 2.0", but rather
as /media/sdb1.

But no nautilus window is opened of the device then... and
double-clicking it show no content, but an error on mounting again...

So nautilus is capable of mounting it, but doesn't know where it was
mounted apparently...

Nor doesn't it know how to unmount it, then.

I suspect something is mangled between the "/media/UDISK 2.0" and
/media/sdb1...

Maybe this symptom, when gvm is stopped helps track the problem.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
