Hi all, I have just installed OpenSuSE 12.3 but I have run into this problem. I have no problem mounting devices as root user, but it does not work when I am a normal user. No password popping out the request, too.
The problem do not shows up in other two installations.
I have no clue about what could have gone wrong.
TIA, Praise
Hi Praise, How are you trying to mount the usb? If you want to mount it as a user there has to be a stanza for it in /etc/fstab such as: "/dev/sdX /mnt file_type user,suid,rw 0 0"
Of course you need to modify the above to suit your system. Also it would be prudent to mount it to a user (non-root) partition.

I need to mount an USB key. I do it with every system by clicking in the KDE plugin, the device notifier. If I do that on that system, it fails with "unspecified error has occurred. not authorized to perform operation", unless I am root. And I don't have any special line in fstab in all other system I have installed 12.3. The user belongs to the video group, so I don't think it's the cause. Googling brings me to nothing.
