Description:
It's no longer possible to mount my USB stick and Kindle in Nautilus and Thunar. I get a "Not authorized" messages. .xinitrc: > [...] > exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch --exit-with-session xmonad polkit-gnome is installed but I don't know if it is started automatically or, if not, how I can start it. I can mount the devices with: > sudo mount /dev/sdc1 kindle -o user But it's all read-only. No idea why. Steps to reproduce: - Open either Nautilus or Thunar - Plug in a USB device. - Wait for the device to show up on the left side. - Click on the icon. What should happen: - Device gets mounted. What does happen: - Popup dialog saying that it's impossible to mount. "Not authorized" |

Reason for closing: Not a bug
Additional comments about closing: polkit-gnome is not started, probably because xmonad doesn't process freedesktop autostart .desktop files. You should start polkit-gnome by hand, it is not activated by dbus.
