Hello,

I have recently installed Gentoo on a new Lenovo T440; I've chosen to go with the profile:
Code:
default/linux/amd64/13.0/desktop/gnome

Nautilus is not able to display the list of mounted USB device on the left panel. I have a Other places option, which shows me the mounted devices, but I would like to have the mounted devices directly on the panel.
Is this possible? Am I missing something?

It's possible that gvfs is compiled with <gtk+-3.18.5. Try to recompile gvfs
Code:
# emerge -1 gvfs

@fedeliallalinea, I have tried to re-emerge gvfs, as you suggested, and it did not solve the problem.

@sebB, I wasn't aware that Nautilus was only capable of showings drives that are mounted on /media.
Here is my /etc/fstab

Code:
# cat /etc/fstab
/dev/sdb3      /      ext4      defaults,noatime      0   1


I'm booting off an external usb drive.

Can you tell us where are mounted the USB devices when you plug them.

No more ideas... I don't have this problem on my computer.

Can you post eix gtk.

What appen if you create an entry for your usb device in your fstab? Them mount it.
Code:
/dev/sdxx      /media/test      xxxx      defaults,noatime      0   1
