You have to use "pkaction --verbose --action-id org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-mount" to check whether the settings are active. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I've added the live user to the sudo group, but it didn't make a difference (I confirmed that 51-debian-sudo.conf is there, too). > Re "/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.udisks.policy": (It's > better to create a pkla file in > "/etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d" than edit a > "/usr/share/polkit-1/" file) Does pkaction display the changed values > for "org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-mount"? I was not aware of the pkaction command, that's quite useful! Anyway, pkaction does list org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-mount, but I still get the "Not authorized" error when trying to mount the filesystem via the serial line. — Jason -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I haven't used polkit since Fedora 12 was released with weird package
installation defaults and I don't have access to the notes that I made
at the time so what follows is just from looking at a Sid VM that I
have running.
Re "pkexec true": Is your user a member of the sudo group? sudo group
members can use pkexec via
"/etc/polkit-1/localauthority.conf.d/51-debian-sudo.conf". If you
don't want that user in the sudo group, you can create a conf file in
"/etc/polkit-1/localauthority.conf.d" to allow it to use pkexec.
Re "/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.udisks.policy": (It's
better to create a pkla file in
"/etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d" than edit a
"/usr/share/polkit-1/" file) Does pkaction display the changed values
for "org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-mount"?
No idea what to say or do about your "ck-list-sessions" output, sorry.
