I have been looking at this problem for a while and just after I sent the email looking for help I found the solution which was to create the file ~/.xinitrc with the following contents:
export XDG_MENU_PREFIX=gnome- exec ck-launch-session gnome-session See forum: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-6345507.html#6345507 Clemente ----- Mensagem Original----- De: Clemente Aguiar <ca-li...@madeiratecnopolo.pt> Reply-to: gentoo-amd64@lists.gentoo.org Para: gentoo-amd64@lists.gentoo.org Assunto: [gentoo-amd64] Unable to mount USB and CD on Gnome Data: Thu, 08 Jul 2010 15:15:19 +0100 For a while now when I insert a CD / DVD or a USB pen drive on my PC, it will not mount, and GNOME gives an error. If it is the DVD the error is as follows: Unable to mount "DVDLABEL" Not Authorized If it is the USB pen drive the error is similar: Unable to mount File System 1,0GB Not Authorized If I login as root then there is no problem, the disks will mount (and automount correctly), but if I login as a "normal" user it will not automount, and even if I go through the menu and select the drive it will not mount giving exactly the same error. One interesting note is that I can mount and unmount using gnome-mount and gnome-unmount utilities, for example: $ gnome-mount -d /dev/sdb1 $ gnome-umount -d /dev/sdb1 Can anybody help me with this problem?
