Hi Folks,
I have an issue in OpenSUSE 11.4 64bit KDE4.6.1 (multiboot from 11.2 32bit KDE 4.6.1) where Udisks does seem to automatically mount other internal drives but only to root, ie only home and root for 11.4 are OK all other internal drives require authorization to be available to user including NTFS drives.
USB/CD Rom mounting is fine.
In 11.2 32-bit all NTFS partitions are automatically mounted via udisks (yes I installed to fix udisks/HAL for >KDE4.5) without authorization required but 11.4 partitions for home and root require authorization. In 11.4 64bit NTFS partitions and 11.2 home/root are NOT automounted to user and require authorization. I would like to get 11.4 to automount to user the NTFS partitions and 11.2 home (not root).
I think the NTFS none automount to user in 11.4 is a bug either as a result of the multi boot or a policy issue. The none automount to user of 11.2 home I assume is standard security policy of Udisks/Udev as this is true of trying to see 11.4 home from 11.2 - is there a way to allow this ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Steps taken so far:
1) Add disks group to user - no effect
-
-
Change settings (see below) in org.freedesktop.udisks.policy from the defaults
listed below to all yes - no effect*<action id=“org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-mount-system-internal”>
<description>Mount a system-internal device</description>
<description xml:lang=“da”>Montér en intern enhed</description>
<message>Authentication is required to mount the device</message>
<message xml:lang=“da”>Autorisering er påkrævet for at montere et fil system</message>
<defaults>
<allow_any>no</allow_any>
<allow_inactive>no</allow_inactive>
<allow_active>auth_admin_keep</allow_active>
</defaults>
</action>

3 Examine the UDEV 80-udisks.rules but I really don’t know enough about this *
-
4 Yes I have set automounting in KDE settings*
The system is multiboot:
default 0
timeout 8
