Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: eog
Intrepid Alpha6 fully updated.
When you have just installed ubuntu, you don't usually have the rights to mount
volumes.
Eog does nothing when you want to open a folder, in this case a volume,
that is not mounted and which you don't have rights to mount (yet).
The expected behaviour should be running policykit.
It's similar to when you want to access to a volume from computer:///... :
has rights? -> open
hasn't rights? -> ask password
