Re: pendrive permissions
Also, a machine I used today was mounting usb drives but the owner would be set to root, so a non-root user wasn't allowed to write. Fixed it by commenting out the usb-related lines in /etc/fstab. (I don't know why they were there, but probably something left over from when I installed testing from a usb stick a few months ago.)

When I put in a usb drive, if I watch the logs, I see something about udisksd mounting it. That's in the udisks2 package. Is that installed?

Installed xorg and mate. Plugged USB stick in. caja comes up. The device is mounted. Upgraded to testing. Same result as above. I'd look at your install method and not follow the example of the domain name you post with. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
