Nautilus doesn't show volumes icons on the desktop

I'm just replying to my self to say that I commented on the bug #139193
that I mentioned earlier.  There I added that I had another issue with a
USB photo camera, I connected it to the USB port, it asked me if I
wanted to import the pictures, I hitted Cancel but there was no icon on
the desktop to browse the files with nautilus.

I'm very sure that this is the same problem as the partitions in fstab.
