I have an issue with not being able to mount usb media as a normal user on OS 12.2 x86_64 Kde, asks for the root password every time
Tried all the things I found on this during searches both on google and this forum
Currently I have the default entry OS installation adds to fstab for usb commented out:
Code:
#usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto 0 0
I get the same behaviour with or without the comment in front of that line, numerous web results suggest there is no need for it to be there
Here's my complete fstab:
Code:
LABEL=Suse / ext4 nodiratime,noatime,discard,acl,user_xattr 1 1
LABEL=Home /home ext4 nodiratime,noatime,discard,acl 1 2
LABEL=Linux /linux ext4 noatime,user,acl,user_xattr,exec 1 2
LABEL=Var /var ext4 acl,user_xattr 1 2
LABEL=Srv /srv ext4 acl,user_xattr 1 2
none /tmp tmpfs defaults 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs noauto 0 0
debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs noauto 0 0
#usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0620,gid=5 0 0
# entry for vbox usb subsystem
#usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs defaults,devmode=666 0 0
I've made a change to policykit as suggested on a bugzilla report I got directed to from a previous thread on this forum, this didn't work either, the change I made is:
Code:
Open org.freedesktop.udisks.policy in an editor and find the entry:
<action id="org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-mount-system-internal">
Then change this line: <allow_active>auth_admin_keep</allow_active> To this:
<allow_active>yes</allow_active>
Save and reboot
Any idea on what else I might try greatly appreciated, any other info I need to provide please ask
Incidentally around the same time this started happening networkmanager also started asking for the root password to make any changes, not sure whether the two are related
