I am trying to play or backup various DVDs i have recently bought and
keep geting this error message: (mind the wrap)
org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-removable auth_admin_keep_always ←
(action, result)
from KIOExec
What in tarnation is going on. How about a useful error message.
quiettechblue@yahoo.com you are going to need to tell us a little more about your system. I have never seen such an error message before. We need more information about…
openSUSE version = (11.3 or 11.2 for instance)
Desktop that you are using = (KDE or GNOME for instance)
Optical Drive Information = (LG or LITEON for instance which reads DVD, CD DVD-RW at speed xx and the drive is /dev/sr0)
What DVD player are you using = (MPLAYER, GXINE, KAFFENIE and so forth)
Any other info would be good. Also consider joining the openSUSE forum instead of just being a guest.
Thank You,

I was a bit sloppy, frustration during a near collapse due to low disk
space (under 1 MiB) on /home volume.

mplayer, k3b, kaffiene, drag and drop copy, open in Knoqueror and

I am coming in from NNTP / Usenet side. The near crash made hash of
my news reader settings. Still fixing them.
I tried to join the web forum once, it didn’t work out. Tried again
later but i could neither use, fix nor delete the existing persona or
create a new one.

So, one issue you can get into when you have more than one optical drive is which drive is called /dev/dvd? Now Kaffeine:KDE3 uses xine settings and so if you downloaded the xine-ui, you can modify the default DVD playre to be /dev/sr0 for instance, but this does not carry out through all DVD players. Some use the default, others can be modified in the player such as Mplayer. I wrote a thread on how to modify and view the default optical drive to use for Linux device names DVD & CDROM.
Multimedia Optical Drive Naming (ie /dev/dvd & /dev/cdrom) Howto in opneSUSE
For instance, if you wanted to use the KsCD CD player, your CD must be in the drive called /dev/cdrom. Sometimes, NO optical drive is designated as /dev/cdrom. Also, CD-DVD drives do go bad. They collect dust and in general do not last as long as you would think. Of course DVD’s get finger prints on them and get scratched, so we need to make sure the quality of the test disks are good.
There are any number of issues that might cause a CD or DVD to not work and it can be a bad disk, improper disk assignment to a bad optical drive. I have had everyone one of these happen to me. As long as you have more than one drive and more than one disk and some info as shown above, you should be able to determine just what the problem might be.

Right off the bat, I see three entries, all with the same CD names. Now this can happen if I switched my CD-ROM drive out three times as only the entry that matches the present installed drive is used. However, if you have more than one drive installed, this is not going to work. Further, if you only have one optical drive right now, you can delete the entry sets for the two drives that are not present.

I was frustrated and got sloppy, sorry 'bout that.
I recently had a near crash when my free disk space went below 1 MiB.
Hosed my newsreader settings too.

I think i tried to join wour web forums once and it did not work out.
Later i tried again and it wouldn’t let me create another persona or
delete the existing unusable one.

Now can we get back to the error message?
I am trying to play or backup various DVDs i have recently bought and
keep geting this error message: (mind the wrap)

All three drives can not be called /dev/dvd or /dev/cdrom, it will not work. You have to decide to whom theses go to. In my example I added a one to the end of the second entry and a 2 to the third entry.

Are you sure you read through the thread at?:
Multimedia Optical Drive Naming (ie /dev/dvd & /dev/cdrom) Howto in opneSUSE
I am pretty sure I mentioned that optical device names can not be duplicated in this text file. While you can have more than one name for each optical drive, all names in this file must be unique.

I can see you are still trying to deal with something you think you
understand. The file below is the file was created at install time.
Thank you for your time, but i am interested in some who will help me
with the error message that i reported.

It could be a PolicyKit problem, see here: Theory of Operation
This thread on another forum discusses something similar (with a possible solution): Re: [opensuse] Strange “PermissionDeniedByPolicy” Problem with 11.1
It seems to be SuSEconfig that messes things up. Hope it works for you!

Thanks. I am starting to work my way through policy kit. Bawg what a
mess. Too many dependancies to just delete it.

Forcibly upgrade/reinstall all of PolicyKit, hal and udev ALL at the
SAME TIME. Make sure you get all the default values as well. Add in
GRUB and the display manager (logon environment) modules if you are
having issues there as well. Then re-edit the policies beyond
local-easy as wanted. It really helped me with my issues of not
recognizing external drives and removable media the way it should.
