It doesn't, but I was under the assumption it was because I'm using systemd. Since I installed gnome-shell-3.4 this has stopped working; my findings can be seen on the bug to freedesktop.org: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53905 It hits not only USB mounting; it also hits suspend/hibernate (I'm no longer allowed to suspend as user), setting up printers, and basically everything related to polkit. The root of the problem seems to be that (somehow) gnome-shell gets registered as PolitUnixSession instead of PolkitUnixProcess or PolkitSystemBusName, and that case is not covered in subject_to_jsval. Could you run polkitd without the --no-debug option (I don't have OpenRC installed, nor /etc/init.d, so I don't know if that is how it's run under OpenRC) and see on the logs if you see the following? ** ERROR:polkitbackendjsauthority.c:730:subject_to_jsval: code should not be reached If so, please state it in the bug. David hasn't answered in three weeks; two of them he was at the Kernel Summit in San Diego, but I think it's time for me to nudge him again. An independent report should help. I'm running GNOME 3 unstable and with my systemd-only overlay, so I'm used to this kind of things happening from time to time. Also, it has easy workarounds (pmount, pm-suspend, etc.), so I haven't been really concerned into fixing it.
