[solved] Dolphin and Mount usb drive Not Authorized

[Mte90]

When i try to open a external hard disk, for example, dolphin report me an error Not Authorized.
I can open and use this hard disks only with dolphin opened by the root user.

[devil]

What filesystem is on that disk?
Also, please run the command 'mount' as root and show us the line for the drive

The file system is fat32 or ntfs.
Example command

Code Auswählen Erweitern

mount /dev/sdb3 /media/drive3[code]
This works without problem and dolphin see the folder.

What are the autorisations of the mountpoint?

In this list are present only the devices mounted in the system.

Please enter the command as root, as the character # indicates. And also the command that devil requested. It works is not a good answer. We like to see the output.

Best regards,

On kde forums say the problem it's polkit http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=224&t=120938

You could try to remove the package usbmount if installed, this is known for creating strange things in mounting external devices.

[Mte90]

usbmount it's not installed 

[Mte90]

any help?

[ghstryder]

I would never consider myself expert at this, but that is exactly what would happen if you have not installed policykit-1. If you aren't using the new release, have you by any chance held off switching to systemd?

[Mte90]

I have installed systemd months ago but yesterday i have checked that missing the package

systemd-sysv

The problem persist and now in the desktop i get an error of klauncher for the folder view that not work.

Your system seems broken in a way that we can't determine. So it is down to guesswork. Please paste what

Code Auswählen Erweitern

apt-get update && apt-get install kde-standard does for you? Also please paste the output of

Code Auswählen Erweitern

dpkg -l | grep policykit
