so
I have installed it, and now I get no desktop icon.
But I can mount it from the cli, possibly because I have an fstab entry.
But experiments are continuing...
can you check if this somehow applies to you please?

YES! As in the bug report, I edited
/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.udisks.policy
and set the section '<action
id="org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-mount">'
to
be '<allow_any>yes</allow_any>'
and '<allow_active>yes</allow_active>'
and now it works as advertised. Thank you.
UPDATE: Now it has stopped working. I get an icon, and:
--------------
Unable to mount this device.
Potential reasons include:
Improper device and/or user privilege level
Corrupt data on storage device
Technical details:
org.freedesktop.UDisks.Error.PermissionDenied: Not Authorized:
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name
org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1 was not provided by any .service files
ps aux gives: kded [tdeinit] --new-startup
I am in plugdev.
The .policy file is as above.
Where next to look?
cheers
