Last modified: 2007-10-31 01:47:40 UTC
problem with mounting of removables media has appeared again, like bugs 297548 or 298998. when i insert cd/dvd, usb key or external hdd, i'll get message: Error-Konqueror hal-storage-mount-removable no <-- (action, result) it isn't regularly.sometimes, i have to restart system and then it starts working.

I got this error too when trying to access CD/DVD: Error-Konqueror hal-storage-mount-removable no <-- (action, result) Solved it for me by adding <config version="0.1"> <match action="hal-storage-mount-removable"> <return result="yes"/> </match> </config> to /etc/PolicyKit/PolicyKit.conf and then executing polkit-reload-config Didn't try to reproduce it yet.
I had this error since updating from 10.2 to 10.3 and can confirm that the fix from Ingo Wichmann worked for me, too. I still get an error on unmounting (from kio_sysinfo), though - don't know if this is related. kio_media_mounthelper says something like "The volume was successfully unmounted but cannot be ejected" (my own translation back from german) Would really like to see opensuse ejecting my USB drive :-D
comment #9 can't be a fix. It might be that this is a duplicate of bug 333735, could you please look there if comment #12 fixes it for you?
I wouldn't call it fix, but its a workaround ;-) ... and reproducable: # cp -a PolicyKit.conf.orig PolicyKit.conf # polkit-reload-config now I get the error message again # cp -a PolicyKit.conf.new PolicyKit.conf # diff PolicyKit.conf PolicyKit.conf.new 8a9,14 > <match action="hal-storage-mount-removable"> > <return result="yes"/> > </match> > <match action="hal-power-suspend"> > <return result="yes"/> > </match> # polkit-reload-config now it works again And yes, the same workaround works for me in behalf of 'powersave -u' : # cp -a PolicyKit.conf.orig PolicyKit.conf # polkit-reload-config $ powersave -u User is not allowed for hal-power-suspend according to PolicyKit. # cp -a PolicyKit.conf.new PolicyKit.conf # polkit-reload-config $ powersave -u works again ;-) But https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=333735#c12 didn't solve the problem for me, though i didn't reboot yet: # cp -a dbus dbus.orig # vi dbus # diff dbus dbus.orig 71c71 < $DBUS_DAEMON_BIN $DBUS_DAEMON_PARAMETER --- > startproc -f -p $DBUS_DAEMON_PID $DBUS_DAEMON_BIN $DBUS_DAEMON_PARAMETER # /etc/init.d/dbus restart Shutting down D-Bus daemon done Starting D-Bus daemonUnknown username "gdm" in message bus configuration file done the gdm error message is probably unrelated ... now i can't eject my dvd by pressing the button on the dvd-drive?! # eject eject works. putting the dvd in again: no reaction, no error message try to revert the change: # cp -a dbus dbus.new # cp -a dbus.orig dbus # /etc/init.d/dbus restart Shutting down D-Bus daemon done Starting D-Bus daemonUnknown username "gdm" in message bus configuration file done again no reaction, no error message my workaround doesn't work either ... will reboot now and hope for the best
Any news? Does the D-Bus init-script fix solve the issue?
I've been trying it for five days and it seems it works for me.(comment #12 of bug 333735) But sometimes problem is when i have enabled compiz-fusion, so i had to disable compiz-fusion.
