Inserting an SD card into the reader gives a desktop icon.
fdisk -l gives:
/dev/sdc1 * 8192 15759359 15751168 7.5G b W95 FAT32
and I can mount it as root and read it fine using:
mount /dev/sdc1 /media/camera/
But trying to mount it with konqueror gives:
Unable to mount this device.
Potential reasons include:
Improper device and/or user privilege level
Corrupt data on storage device
Technical details:
No supported mounting methods were detected on your system
Any clues, anyone?
(Trinity R14.0.1. And kded is running)
cheers

Most likely you don't have permission to mount removeable storage devices.
IIRC you need to be a member of the plugdev group on Ubuntu.
TDE uses udisks to handle the actual mount/umount operation, so all
conditions for the use of udisks need to be met before removable storage
mount/unmount will work under TDE.
Hope this helps!

Thank you for the hint - I didn't have udisks (or udisks2?) installed, 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...

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.
