In my case, I was able to fix the issue without removing lightdm - I discovered, that for some reason (I never made according changes, I am 100% sure)
/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf contained [SeatDefaults] greeter-session=unity-greeter user-session=ubuntu autologin-user=<my_user> I commented out the last line in #autologin-user=<my_user> and that solved the issue with the missing rights for me. Nota bene: Autologin was NOT active - I had to login with password, and I NEVER selected to autologin as we have a multi-user desktop here at home. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/851055 Title: [Oneiric] 'Not Authorized' error given when mounting device To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/851055/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
