[opensuse-factory] Mounting USB devices

1 Nov 2009

      I've done a clean install of RC2, and users can't access external devices.
They are prompted for the root password. in
/usr/share/PolicyKit/policy/org.freedesktop.hal.storage.policy, I have

  <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>

In KDE, the devices are mounted automatically, but cannot be accessed or
unmounted by users. In Gnome, root password is required to mount. When
mounted, users have r/w access. Is this the default behavior in RC2? How
to modify this?
