Error log from .xssession-error
"Could not mount the following device: 15.0 GiB Removable Media" "An unspecified error has occurred: Not authorized to perform operation" "/org/freedesktop/UDisks2/block_devices/sdc1"
However, mount in Dolphin and umount in Device Notifier have no problem.
I am using openrc Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem? Thanks |

IMHO it is a polkit issue, recently had my share of problems with this thing, you should add similar rule to /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/<some number> - <some name>.rules (i.e. 10-enable_mount.rules)
| Code: | polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if (action.id.indexOf("org.freedesktop.udisks2.") == 0 &&
subject.isInGroup("users")) {
return polkit.Result.YES;
}
});
|
Do note, that for this particular rule your user has to be in users groups (or you can drop the "&& subject.isInGroup("users")" clause, whichever you want). Polkit will automatically update your ruleset in time, but you can hasten the process by rebooting. |

has been tried. not working for automount but working by clicking.
In fact, suspend, reboot, shutdown, automount on dolphin, all work very well. So I don't know what I could try. |

However, I tried the method shown here:https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Polkit
But it doesn't work. why? |

Well, I am not entirely sure what you mean, but I believe the syntax changed a little since then and the wiki entry isn't 100% appropriate anymore, especially I am not sure that returning simply "yes" is valid anymore. |

All right, Thanks.
I mean that when I plug the USB in my computer, it isn't automounted automatically, only it could only be automounted when I click it in device notifier. Well. it really doesn't matter. It is good now. Thanks. |
