------- Additional Comments From christopher.martin utoronto ca  2006-07-10 21:05 \
------- Debian only disables the mounting of volumes for systems using pam_console, \
which Debian doesn't use by default anyway. So for non pam_console distros, the \
default hal.conf does not allow volume mounting.

Of course, Debian could patch hal.conf to allow users of a certain group to mount \
volumes, and I've requested this change, but we'll see how far that goes.   It does \
seem that my initial complaint - that changes will have to be made by users/non-KDE \
packagers, etc. in a point release - is still valid to an extent.

What distro are you using, out of curiosity?
