Bug#444592: gparted: hal permission problem

2007-09-29 Thread Stefano Sabatini
Package: gparted
Version: 0.3.3-2
Severity: important

When I run gparted with the command:
sudo gparted

I get a message window saying:

Cannot mount volume.

Error org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.PermissionDeniedByPolicy.

Details -> hal-storage-fixed-mount refused uid 1000
(1000 is the uid of my effective user)

The program starts despite the warning message, but then I can't
perform any resize operation (the resize button results disactivated).

Thanks, regards.
