How do I configure PolicyKit so I'm allowed at least read access to
NTFS/FAT32 partitions?
Without knowing what I'm doing, I just ran this...
=============
# /usr/libexec/polkitd &
# /usr/libexec/udisks-daemon &
=============
... and the KDE Dolphin filemanager automounted and granted me access
to the two (ext4 and NTFS) partitions on the SATA drive. Cool :-)
I'd still like to know a bit more about what applications are involved
to allow users in Dolphin to access partitions on internal and
external devices.
Is there a good article somewhere that gives the big picture?
You need to run your session with ConsoleKit/dbus in the start so you
don't need to run the daemons like that afterwards
For example, see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ConsoleKit
or first post of this thread:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-858965-start-0.html
If you read between the lines from that post, it'll apply to any Linux
distro
I for example have ~/.xinitrc of `exec startxfce4 --with-ck-launch` and
use `startx` to run Xfce
I might have there something like `exec ck-launch-session startkde4` too
Then you need the pam_ck_connector.so module so that it runs when you
log into the system, like
$ grep pam_ck /etc/pam.d/*
/etc/pam.d/system-login:-session optional pam_ck_connector.so
nox11
But this should already be handled by your distro...
Best if you just read those links I gave you, so I don't need to repeat
it all here ;-)
