Summary: Automounting of USB media fails in KDE3
Product: openSUSE 11.1
Version: Final
Platform: x86
OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1
Status: NEW

OpenSUSE 11.1 (upgraded), KDE 3.5.10.
On plugging any sort of USB mass storage in (I've tried two external HDs, an SD
card in reader, and a USB flash keychain), the expected popup appears, but when
one picks "open in new window", a konqueror window pops up with a dialog over
it reading:
org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-removable auth_admin_keep_always <-- (action,
result)
This seems similar to bug #416956, but altering
/usr/share/PolicyKit/policy/org.freedesktop.hal.storage.policy has no effect,
so it's probably actually a different bug.
The latter file now contains:
<action id="org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-removable">
<description>Mount file systems from removable drives.</description>
<message>System policy prevents mounting removable media</message>
<defaults>
yes
yes
</defaults>
</action>
(the installed default differed in that allow_inactive was "no"). Note that
there is no auth_admin.
polkit-auth gives:
org.freedesktop.hal.leds.brightness
org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.fingerprint-reader
org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.audio-player
org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.camera

/etc/sysconfig/security has POLKIT_DEFAULT_PRIVS=""
/lib/dbus-1/dbus-daemon-launch-helper is already SUID.
I do not have KDE4 installed, let alone the KDE4:Unstable repo (cf. bug #435776
and bug #416956).
I can't figure out the correct dbus-send command to try the method
directly-it's changed since the last time I struggled with HAL. qdbusviewer
appears to do nothing (except occassionally lock up) when invoking what I
believe is the correct mount method.
Mounting the device manually (as root) works fine. Unfortunately, I don't
really know how this PolicyKit stuff works, except that (for me) it doesn't.
Any suggestions?
