But that alone isn't enough to see the folders. I made a bunch of symlinks so that I have /home/nemo/SDcard, /home/nemo/Music/SDmusic, /home/nemo/video/SDvideo etc. This probably isn't the best way of doing this, but it works.
Although after mounting the SD card after reboot, you might need to tell tracker to reindex. There is "tracker-sd-indexing.sh", that seems to enable removable media indexing and restart tracker.
Didn't got my Jolla yet but have formatted my 64Gb card as ext4 too.
Is there a possibility to write a batch file to execute?
Manually mounting the card each time incl. adressing different folders is.......time consumiong

They are using connman (Connection Manager) and i think it might be communicating with wpa_supplicant and sending the configuration through socket /var/run/wpa_supplicant/wlan0.

You can probably make systemd do it or configure a new unit for systemd that will do it.

For now I have tried to stay away from systemd. SystemV init, BSD's rc and Upstart seem so clear and easy when compared to systemd.

For me both works when using USB MTP.

As most users don't speak finish there's no point in that.

They have below 100 employees for ****s sake.
I cited 2 wikipedia entries, you're just swearing.

Thats why its also ridiculous to cry about missing features etc as even in current state Sailfish is a remarkable achievement.
I'm not crying I'm simply criticising that essential features are missing (and I'm not alone)

And the expected basic features are different for every person.

I'm sorry but I don't see how this is different from iOS and Android. Both were quite buggy and had many features missing when they launched. And despite that they didn't have "alpha" or "beta" tags with them.

Connection to wifi with a smartphone? Who's not expecting that?

Well you should only need to make the symbolic links once, after that you need to do "only" the mounting and tracker restart each time. I'm not proficient enough to do automatic script to do this every boot.

Symbolic links that I use:
Code:
ln -s /run/user/100000/media/sdcard /home/nemo/SDcard
ln -s /run/user/100000/media/sdcard/Video /home/nemo/Video/SDvideo
ln -s /run/user/100000/media/sdcard/Music /home/nemo/Video/SDmusic
Mounting & indexing
Code:
devel-su
password
mount /dev/mmcblk1p1 /run/user/100000/media/sdcard
tracker-sd-indexing.sh
