I googled "calibre automount" and this very thread popped up at the top of the list -- and I only posted 45 minutes ago. Wow.

Strike One: I turned up this, which creates a dummy /usr/bin/calibre-mount-helper, but that didn't fix my problem.

Strike Two: So I renamed /opt/calibre/calibre-mount-helper. Same luck.

Strike Three: So I un-renamed /opt/calibre/calibre-mount-helper, deleted the dummy /usr/bin/calibre-mount-helper, then unmounted my device (leaving it connected) in order to give Calibre a shot at mounting it itself. Same problem, slightly different details:

Code:
(30, 'Read-only file system')

Traceback (most recent call last):
