You also need in start-up applications  @dbus-launch pcmanfm --desktop -d or  @dbus-launch pcmanfm  -d  to start pcmanfm to show mounted volumes in the left column Ignore if you already did this.

I've got dbus and udiskie definitely from the Artix repos. And I have the lxpolkit for LXDE.
Remote=yes
RemoteHost=192.168.1.169
Active=yes

I'm not quite sure what that means, if I make it say no then does it disconnect me on SSH?

hmmmm.... I think pcmanfm already opens, I'm not quite sure. How can I check? Does it hurt to have that command put in twice?

Just issue it locally, not from an ssh session. What about other usb media, do they automount?

Yea other USBs automount, I've got it[the computer in question] automounting other normal USBs, that's not really the problem anymore, the problem is that I can't see the file structure of this 2TB harddrive, it just comes up as /dev/sdb & not /dev/sdb1 so I can't get the UUID for it... I can get the UUID for it on other distros though...

Hmmm, since it's the kernel that passes partition info to userspace, please post the output of 'dmesg -wH' from artix and debian when plugging in the usb disk.

Has anyone else been having trouble with getting the forums to load???
Here's the command for Artix, Nous. https://pastebin.com/WUXGzssR
I'll get the Debian one a bit later when I get back home.

What's the trouble? Lag or errors?

That's the relevant section, the linux-ck kernel identifies the disk partitionless. Post now the debian kernel snippet to compare.

Ok so I got the command for Debian but I've noticed that I can't do sudo blkid /dev/sdb1 ... I'm gonna install Manjaro on another computer & then I'll get you the output for that too, ok? Because I swear I was able to blkid /dev/sdb1 before.

Debian with kernel 4.13? I'm impressed, thought they'd be at 3.14 or something.

Re: USB HDD not loading on either computer with Artix Linux...

No, that's Debian Sid (unstable) which was introduced in sid when 4.13 was labeled stable and 4.14 was at about rc3.
In my case, I had been trying 4.13 since Manjaro and would never work, it worked when Debian released it as I borrowed it in my Devuan tests.  Then it worked here shortly afterwards.
I think Jessie (old stable) is at 3.16 and current stable is at 4.9 (that's 5 months old)
Using software with well known bugs for 2 years after they have been solved and work fine in Arch was my reason for departing this stable philosophy.   Stale is only a "b" away from debian.

Make sure these entries are in groups these entries are in groups uucp:x:14: user name   adbusers:x:996:user name  storage:x:95:user name

You don't need adbusers and you probably won't have that group as it comes from the "android-udev" package and is needed for adb and fastboot on android phones.

How do I do that????? I'm really confused.. I haven't been able to reply to this thread for a while because I keep getting some weird error...
Apparently I'm able to reply to it now.... I uploaded screenshots on another thread about this thread.

How do I change Active=Yes and Remote=Yes ? ? ? ? ? ? ?? ? ? ? ? ?? ? ?????? ?? ? ? ???
I honestly have no clue, I can't figure out HOW I was supposed to do this...
