When you insert an USB stick or USB drive Nautilus will automatically try to mount every partition on it. In combination with '[[Require sudo password for mounting]]', it will request a password for each try. You can disable this behavior with the gconf-editor.

Start dconf-editor:

<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
sudo apt-get install dconf-tools
dconf-editor
</syntaxhighlight>

Go to: org -> gnome -> desktop -> media-handling -> automount and uncheck the value.

Or:

<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.media-handling automount false
</syntaxhighlight>
