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> <allow_inactive>yes</allow_inactive> <allow_active>yes</allow_active> </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 org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.cdrom org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.removable-block org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.dvb org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.floppy org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.ieee1394-avc org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.ieee1394-iidc org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.joystick org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.mouse org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.pda org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.scanner org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.sound org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.video4linux ck-list-sessions: Session1: uid = '500' realname = '' seat = 'Seat1' session-type = '' active = TRUE x11-display = ':0' x11-display-device = '/dev/tty7' display-device = '' remote-host-name = '' is-local = TRUE on-since = '2009-01-06T20:53:19.604980Z' lshal --monitor: 14:02:14.804: usb_device_1058_300_AB030716020110 added 14:02:14.857: usb_device_1058_300_AB030716020110_if0 added 14:02:14.888: usb_device_1058_300_AB030716020110_if0_scsi_host added 14:02:18.861: usb_device_1058_300_AB030716020110_if0_scsi_host_0 added 14:02:18.866: usb_device_1058_300_AB030716020110_if0_scsi_host_0_scsi_device_lun0 added 14:02:18.960: usb_device_1058_300_AB030716020110_if0_scsi_host_0_scsi_device_lun0_scsi_generic added 14:02:19.183: storage_serial_WDC_WD800BB_00DKA0_AB030716020110_0_0 added 14:02:19.303: volume_uuid_6e7faad2_ddc3_4912_8af5_47031927eb4a added /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.
