Sorry for the previous hijacked thread.
The problem is I get error instead of mounting a drive: Unable to mount this device. Potential reasons include: Improper device and/or user privilege level Corrupt data on storage device Technical details: org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Error.NotAuthorizedCanObtain: Not authorized to perform operation
I checked my groups. They are: disk, floppy, cdrom, vboxusers, root. Aren't they enough?

I have plugdev netdev for usb and nfs disks
Try getting more detailed message from dmesg or syslog. Which kind of authentication is not provided?
It might be policykit related if the above does not help.

Sorry, forgot to mention. My distro is openSuse 13.1.
What kind of information should I seek for in dmesg out? The only message I get is Konqueror message.

what is the authentication problem or the dbus problem?
I am on debian - time ago I had to tweak the policykit files to be able to do certain things/use services as simple user.

Here's dbus-monitor out:
dest=:1.46 serial=2 path=/org/freedesktop/DBus; interface=org.freedesktop.DBus; member=NameAcquired string ":1.46" method call sender=:1.46 -> dest=org.freedesktop.DBus serial=3 path=/org/freedesktop/DBus; interface=org.freedesktop.DBus; member=AddMatch string "eavesdrop=true,type='method_call'" method call sender=:1.46 -> dest=org.freedesktop.DBus serial=4 path=/org/freedesktop/DBus; interface=org.freedesktop.DBus; member=AddMatch string "eavesdrop=true,type='method_return'" method call sender=:1.46 -> dest=org.freedesktop.DBus serial=5 path=/org/freedesktop/DBus; interface=org.freedesktop.DBus; member=AddMatch string "eavesdrop=true,type='error'"
Don't know if that's what you want.

I'll look for it, but it seems I don't have it installed.

I posted below in hurry. Check this file and if the options are set
/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.udisks.policy <action id="org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-mount"> ... <allow_any>yes</allow_any> ... <allow_active>yes</allow_active> </action>

I set those options to "yes" both in udisks and udisks2 files (they were set to auth_admin before in udisks2). Must I restart TDE?

Yes might be similar. I also noticed that recently I do not get notified when I plug in the phone as usb storage.
