Apologies. I had the same problem you had (USB drive would not mount automatically for ordinary users), and learned (from help here) that consolekit was to blame. But now, even with the earlier consolekit, I'm having the same problem again. I tried upgrading consolekit and found that permissions were even worse (clicking the off/on button in X did NOTHING instead of giving me the restart menu), but evidently the permissions problem has spread. Now I'm not sure where to look for it. Patrick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

USB media no longer shows up in file manager for root or normal users
I'm running the latest x86 Debian Sid. The norm was that when USB media was plugged in would show up in /media where I could mount it by clicking on the appropriate icon in Thunar file manager. This was for my regular user account. Suddenly, USB media no longer shows up in Thunar. I have to mount them as root. from dmesg: [122338.324044] usb 1-10: new high speed USB device number 7 using ehci_hcd [122338.457761] usb 1-10: New USB device found, idVendor=0781, idProduct=5406 [122338.457771] usb 1-10: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 [122338.457780] usb 1-10: Product: U3 Cruzer Micro [122338.457787] usb 1-10: Manufacturer: SanDisk [122338.457793] usb 1-10: SerialNumber: 18604575513E [122338.458323] scsi8 : usb-storage 1-10:1.0 [122339.458195] scsi 8:0:0:0: Direct-Access SanDisk U3 Cruzer Micro 4.05 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2 [122339.460937] sd 8:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg8 type 0 [122339.461287] sd 8:0:0:0: [sdg] 4013709 512-byte logical blocks: (2.05 GB/1.91 GiB) [122339.462034] sd 8:0:0:0: [sdg] Write Protect is off [122339.462043] sd 8:0:0:0: [sdg] Mode Sense: 03 00 00 00 [122339.462050] sd 8:0:0:0: [sdg] Assuming drive cache: write through [122339.466057] sd 8:0:0:0: [sdg] Assuming drive cache: write through [122339.469168] sdg: [122339.472156] sd 8:0:0:0: [sdg] Assuming drive cache: write through [122339.472168] sd 8:0:0:0: [sdg] Attached SCSI removable disk I don't recall ever having to mess with udev or its rules.
