EDIT: Marking this as solved, sorry for the noise: Arghhh, my rules where badly written and I blindly copied them from a different thread. I guess I'll keep this post in the hopes that it will be useful to someone. The rules that actually worked for me:
| Code: |
# cat /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/10-automount.rules
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if (action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount" &&
subject.user == "myuser") {
return "yes";
}
});

Hello, this problem has appeared in many threads in different disguises and I tried many of the solutions posted (reflected in this post below) but I still can't manage to get my system to aumount a usb stick.
My relevant use flags:
| Code: |
[ebuild R ] gnome-base/gvfs-1.20.2 USE="http systemd udev udisks -afp -archive -avahi -bluray -cdda -fuse -gnome-online-accounts -gphoto2 -gtk -ios -libsecret -mtp -samba {-test}"
[ebuild R ] sys-apps/systemd-212-r5:0/2 USE="acl filecaps firmware-loader gudev kmod pam policykit seccomp -audit -cryptsetup -doc -gcrypt -http -introspection (-kdbus) -lzma -python -qrcode (-selinux) (-ssl) {-test} -vanilla -xattr" PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="python2_7 -python3_2 -python3_3" PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7 python3_3 -python3_2"
[ebuild R ] sys-fs/udisks-2.1.3:2 USE="gptfdisk systemd -cryptsetup -debug -introspection (-selinux)"
|
My rules
| Code: |
# cat /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/60-automount.rules
polkit.addAdminRule(function(action, subject) {
return ["unix-group:wheel"];
});
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if ((action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.*")) {
return polkit.Result.YES;
}
});
|
My processes running
| Code: | $ ps -aux | grep udisks
mariana 1855 0.0 0.1 273344 4464 ? Sl 06:40 0:00 /usr/libexec/gvfs-udisks2-volume-monitor
root 1888 0.0 0.1 425840 5092 ? Ssl 06:40 0:00 /usr/lib/udisks2/udisksd --no-debug
mariana 2119 0.0 0.0 10592 960 pts/0 S+ 06:53 0:00 grep --colour=auto udisks
|
And anyway when I want to mount I am required to register as root:
| Code: | $ udisksctl mount -b /dev/sr0
==== AUTHENTICATING FOR org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount ===
Authentication is required to mount SanDisk Cruzer (/dev/sr0)
Authenticating as: root

What do I need to do? |

Hi.. I got a similar situation as yours.
After I have done trials and errors for a day, I figure out a way to have pcmanfm performing automount, unmount and eject.
First, I follow the first post from ssuominen in this link https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-858965.html
Then, wiki "polkit" gentoo.
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Polkit
From that wiki link, it said the rule actions can be found in
| Code: |
/usr/share/polkit-1/actions
|
Here is the one which works for me:
At
| Code: | | /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/ |
create a file:10-udisks.rules
| Code: |
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if (( action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount" ||
action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount-system" ||
action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-unmount-others" ||
action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.eject-media-system" ||
action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.eject-media") &&
subject.user == "ewo" ) {
return "yes";
}
});

**Replace "ewo" with your username.
That code lets you automount, unmount, and eject usb drives and cds.
Note: If you eject usb drive from pcmanfm, pcmanfm quits by itself. It's a known bug that I don't know how to fix.
After I made the rule files,
I added "ck-launch-session" and "dbus-launch" on the line that executes the window manger in ~/.xinitrc file.
My example is for pekwm window manager.
| Code: | | exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch pekwm |
Lastly, make sure pcmanfm doesn't executed with ck-launch-session and dbus-launch. So, simply type:
to run pcmanfm from shell console like xterm.
Otherwise, the rules do not work with pcmanfm.
Hopefully, what I posted here can help you. |
