Hello,

I am using opensuse 10.2 on my desktop. Usually on this sytsem there are two 
local accounts active each with a graphical KDE login.    

The problem I have now are permissions with hotplugged devices that are 
mounted automatically. An USB stick with a fat filesystem it is mounted as a 
particular user and 755 permissions. So only one of both accounts can access 
the USB stick and its unclear to which user it will belong.

So what I would like to do is to have the mount of such devices use the mount 
option "umask" so that the permissions of all files on the fat filesystem 
would be set to 777.

The problem is that I do not know where to set this option in the automatic 
mount process. I guess that it should be done in a HAL fdi config file but in 
the docs of HAL I found no hint how to do this? 

Any suggestion?

Thanks
Rainer
