In XFCE, the same occurs and was only "fixed" by installing gvfs. (wtf does udisks need gvfs?) Of course I could just manually mount(8) them, which I fathom Dolphin might just do (which would also explain why it needs root, if it does).
XFCE might depend on gvfs, udisks does not. You can mount devices using udisk (iirc the CLI tool is called udiskctl), who is allowed to do what depends on your policykit settings (/etc/polkit-default-privs.*) Dolphin uses udisks via its solid library. On KDE, you can (un)mount partitions from Dolphin, from the Device Notifier, from Konqueror ... Policykit settings apply here as well.

What I mean is: there is an udisksd process running. Why can't udisks do the *auto*mounting instead of gvfsd? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Well ... at some point it was decided that it should be user decision. So something has to run as part of user session that commands udisks to do it. udisks itself is hardly more than a registry of existing devices + couple of methods that require root privileges. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
