ive never had this issue.
what kind of autistic distro are you running?

So fix it. Pleb.

apt-get install usbmount

>The fourth field (fs_mntops).
>This field describes the mount options associated with the filesystem.
>It is formatted as a comma-separated list of options. It contains at least the type of mount (ro or rw), plus any additional options appropriate to the filesystem type (including performance-tuning options). For details, see mount(8) or swapon(8).
>Basic filesystem-independent options are:
>...
>user: allow a user to mount

Because u use some pleb obscute distro. Just install chad patrician mint.

Mint is trash, at least use Ubuntu or Debian.

Mint is the best first time linux distro.
Once mint has broken itself, immediately switch to ubuntu.

What distro does this? Debian-based distros certainly don't

Wrong in every way.
Debian is objectively the only proper distro to start on because its the perfectly blend of "apt install" magic and "you're gunna have to fuck around a little"
And Linux inherently requires fucking around, so this is the best way to introduce that.

Absolute dogshit as debian has no drivers.

You need to buy hardware made compatible with linux. If you bought hardware for windows, you need to deal with proprietary driverblobs and that's where debian is absolute trash.

Stop making people think debian is trash because you make them check it out when they literally can't yet.

daily life on bsd

Only apt. What year do you live in?

>what is firmware-nonfree

I'll tell you, newfag: Not updated as often and therefore often lacking in bootloaders that work with modern bugridden UEFIs.
Don't try teaching me debian.

That doesn't mean Linux isn't shit, though - it just means you've got a suid kludge to sweep Linux's architectural asshatness under the rug.
The Plan 9 way is more like: whatever user turns the terminal on inherently has root on it.
It just werks.

Woah man, I wanted to try out debian. Is the non free part really in such a sorry state? I thought debian has shittons of contributors...

install whatever program automounts then?

Why do you listen to Sup Forums?

>whatever user turns the terminal on inherently has root on it.

Retarded design, the OS.

Install udiskie.
Problem solved.

Debian is good on a (old) thinkpad which has excellent linux support

This so much. For someone looking to get into linux I'd rather recommend them Debian than anything else just because of those reasons.

Save debian for when you have some experience with linux

>systemd

setup a cron job that runs every second checking for a new device, and mounting it automatically
