I've seen this before, and it's reared it's head again on my oS11.3 install... I cannot mount fixed NTFS drives in Dolphin. If I click the drive it just errors out with the usual cryptic error message: org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.PermissionDeniedByPolicy: org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-fixed auth_admin_keep_always So.. that's nice and all, but what's the "right" solution to sort this out? I haven't changed or tweaked my HAL policy settings... they are the defaults from the 11.3 install. I've dug up a few things in Google such as this forum entry... which suggests it's an openSUSE issue: http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=89552 I've also read several forum entries where people have compared other non-openSUSE KDE installs in similar conditions, and the problem seems to be occurring in openSUSE... but not really anywhere else. Any ideas? I suppose I could define the drive in my fstab, but I'd prefer not to... I'd rather mount it only when needed... just like I do with USB drives.
