Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: policykit-gnome
On my Hardy AMD64 desktop, if in Nautilus I click on a partition, I am
prompted with a dialog message titled "Authenticate" which states
"System policy prevents mounting internal media" and I am asked for my
password.
If I click cancel, I am returned to the Nautilus dialog. If I again
click on the same partition, a taskbar process shows "Authenticate" but
my desktop freezes up solid. The only way for me to continue is to
restart X (Ctrl-Alt-Backspace).
I then tried the same steps on my Hardy i386 desktop, and the only
difference is that when the second attempt to authenticate is made,
after 30 seconds the "Authenticate" process will disappear and my
desktop begins to respond again.
The attached auth.log is from the i386 desktop.
