Every time I try to automount a USB drive with HAL I receive the error
For whatever reason, I cannot get this to work no matter what I do. I have tried granting myself the privileges with [cmd=""]# polkit-auth --grant org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-removable --user myuname --constraint active [/cmd] I have tried adding myself to PolicyKit.conf using
I even thought I would be slick and fiddle with 20-storage-methods.fdi but this caused many more problems, so I changed it back to the default. My assumption is that this error means that my uid does not have permission to mount, and my question is: Is there a way that I can change this? Automounting does not work in Gnome, KDE 3, E17, XFCE4, or any other window manager that I have tried. Nautilus fails with an "Invalid Mount Option" error. The more verbose output was from E17. Also, if this helps, the output of [cmd=""]% ck-list-sessions[/cmd]
I don't even have an idea of where to start at this point, as all of my best guesses, and documentation that I have read have not worked. Thanks for any help/advice you can give.
Code:
Can't mount device /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_0D0A_79E4/media/0D0A-79E4
