Salut Didier!

      Unfortunately, without policykit, the users are not allowed
to mount removable media like usb memory sticks. Few years ago the
permissions were handled in udev rules, but nowadays udev rules have
shrinked to one rule in 70-persistent-net.rules.
Interesting.

As for mounting without udev, i know there is spacefm
which does it using its own mounting routine called udevil. Ok, it's
not Thunar, but for all desktops using pcmanfm spacefm would be a nearly
1:1 substitute, if not even an improvement ... ;)



Thanks for pointing me to udevil (I've already read about it on this list, but never looked at it before). Looks pretty simple. I'm considering writing a script which would invoke udevil for mount/umount and do the same as sudox for other cases. The idea is to put that script in /usr/bin/local and a link to it in /usr/bin, named pkexec. I hope to be able to remove policykit with that.

    Cheers.
                        Didier
