I have no idea why all those files are modified, that's really odd... I have a system-76 laptop, so maybe their customizations are responsible? I'll ask.
The permission it asks for is indeed: org.freedesktop.devicekit.disks.filesystem-mount-system-internal Runing devicekit-disks --dump yields: device-file: /dev/sdb [...] system internal: 1 removable: 0 [...] device-file: /dev/sdb1 [...] system internal: 1 removable: 0 Same whether or not the drive is mounted. Ah, I see why, I had my USB drive mounted at the time, not my eSATA drive. I should have had that mounted when I filed the bug. Full output attached, with /dev/sdb1 mounted at /media/1T. ** Attachment added: "devicekit-disks --dump output with drive in question at /dev/sdb" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35515973/DevkitDisksDumpSeeSDB1.txt -- eSATA external drive requires password to mount https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/477782 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
