OK, I tried TDE in openSUSE 13.2. In 13.2 I can not mount other

There is a difference between 13.2 and Leap 42.2.
What program does TDE use for mounting volumes? I would like to know
where to
search for the differences.
Thanks,

It is also very strange that a user running mount
command can not
mount
those partitions while the desktop system makes it possible.
How can this behavior be changed so that normal could not mount
other
partitions?
I would like to report this as a bug, how can I?
I just tried to unmount /boot and I got following error
Technical details:
org.freedesktop.UDisks.Error.Failed: Error unmounting: umount exited

According mount nouser is within default options, so if you, as
normal user,
are able to unmount such a device, you should look into the groups or
even
dbus settings (org.freedesktop.UDisks) to trace the problem on your
system.
I don't think TDE is able to act as super user in any sense unless
you have
configured something on your system. So far I have not found such an
option
in TDE. Look deeper.
