Description Kevin Fenzi 2018-06-10 19:08:46 CEST
Downstream report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1585686

"Description of problem:
-----------------------
A pFranc USB Serial adapter type U232-P9 USB serial adapter is recognised and works correctly on a loop-back cable but causes Thunar to report kernel errors.

This is unexpected behavior: a serial adapter cannot contain a filing system and so should either not be passed to Thunar or should be refused by Thunar without causing kernel errors.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 
-------------------------------------------------------------
Thunar 1.6.15


How reproducible:
-----------------
Happens every time the USB Serial adapter is attached


Steps to Reproduce:
-------------------
1. Plug the USB Serial adapter into a vacant USB port


Actual results:
---------------
Jun  4 13:03:20 zappa kernel: usb 2-1: new full-speed USB device number 5 using xhci_hcd

Jun  4 13:03:21 zappa mtp-probe[1955]: bus: 2, device: 5 was not an MTP device
Jun  4 13:03:21 zappa org.xfce.FileManager[1135]: thunar-volman: Unsupported USB device type "usb".
Jun  4 13:03:21 zappa org.xfce.FileManager[1135]: thunar-volman: Unsupported USB device type "mct_u232".



Expected results: 
-----------------
Connecting the serial adaptor should not cause Thunar to raise kernel errors."
