LUKS encrypted removable drives and Gnome
Is anyone using LUKS encrypted removable drives in Gnome desktop? What
is your experience?
When I plug-in my encrypted USB drive, Nautilus shows it properly in
"Computer" place. When I click on the device's icon, I expect some
dialog asking for passphrase; but window saying "Opening ..." appears
instead and waits indefinitely.
At the same time 'ps' command says
...

root 7809 7807 0 20:40 pts/4 00:00:00 /sbin/cryptsetup

so something is going on, but no prompt for passphrase. Any ideas? I'm
runnig AMD64 Sid.
