My understanding is that allowing the mounting fixed media (e-sata counts as "fixed" even though it technically is removable) without superuser privileges creates a security hole. Thus, you must enter your password in Dolphin in order to do so. If you really don't want to have to enter your password, you could use probably use policykit to achieve the desired effect. Something like
polkit-auth --grant org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-fixed --user your- username -- unable to mount disks in dolphin / hal permission denied https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/528907 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kde4libs in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
