Lubuntu chrooted install
 

I installed Lubuntu with the traditional 2 NIC setup but I had an issue with the USB devices not showing up on the desktop of the users.If you experience this issue this is what I did to resolve it:First create the mounter.d directory
sudo mkdir -p /etc/ltspfs/mounter.dsudo apt-get install python-notifysudo cp /usr/share/doc/ltspfs/examples/notify /etc/ltspfs/mounter.d/sudo cp*/usr/share/doc/ltspfs/examples/kde-desktop-icons*/etc/ltspfs/mounter.d/

make sure that both are executable chmod a+x on both these filesedit kde-desktop-icons to have the following. Under "if mode=='add'" up to "elif mode=='remove'" replace what there is there with this:

* * desktop_file_s = get_desktop_file_path(dev)* * if os.path.exists(desktop_file_s):* * * * print >>sys.stderr, ".desktop file already exists, skipping"
* * * * sys.exit(1)
* * * * icon = 'synaptic.png'
* * try:* * * * desktop_file = open(desktop_file_s, 'w')* * * * desktop_file.write('
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=%s
Icon=/usr/share/icons/gnome/32x32/devices/gnome-dev-removable.png
Type=Application
Exec=/usr/usr/bin/pcmanfm "%s"
' % (dev, mountpoint))

* * * * desktop_file.close()* * except IOError, e: * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *** * * * print >>sys.stderr, 'unable to create desktop file:', e

When a user now plugs in a USB python notify will pop up an alert and a .desktop file will be visible on the user's desktop
I hope this helps someone
