PCManFM 0.9.5 Not Authorized Popup For USB

[DasFox]

I made this post in regards to 0.5.2 not mounting:

http://forum.lxde.org/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=1502

So then I compiled menu-cache, libfm and pcmanfm 0.9.5, now when I try to install a usb drive I get a popup, 'Not Authorized' and the same thing happens if I right click on the drive to mount it.

I have gvfs installed and I compiled pcmanfm against it. I also have hal, dbus, udisks and pmount installed, but hal isn't running only dbus and here is my /etc/group:

This seems to be a permission problem, how can I fix this so my usb drives will automount?


THANKS

I have exactly the same problem!

Ubuntu CLI install
Lubuntu repo added
lxde metapackage + pcmanfm installed

I had this problem too, but on a custom configured openbox. It seems to be a polkit issue, this helped:

Code: Select all

$ sudo polkit-auth --user erik --grant org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-removable

(Replace 'erik' with your username)

A relogon was necessary to finally get pcmanfm working with usb ...

That didn't help me

policykit wasn't even installed on my system so I had to install it.

* sudo apt-get install policykit -> logout/login: 'Not authorized'
* spolkit-auth --user harold --grant org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-removable -> logout/login: 'Not authorized'
* Add 'harold' to the polkit group in /etc/group: -> logout/login: 'Not authorized'

Any more options to try?

What does

Code: Select all

ck-list-sessions

return? Is there a session for your user? If not, try running

Code: Select all

ck-launch-session startlxde

instead of just running

Code: Select all

startlxde

in /usr/share/xsessions/LXDE.desktop
