   Automounting removable devices in KDE

   Hi ALOG,   
      
   I've got a small problem with automounting USB devices in KDE and it   
   looks like it's permission related.   
      
   First I was always getting this message (from Konqueror):   
      
   A security policy in place prevents this sender from sending this   
   message to this recipient, see message bus configuration file (rejected   
   message had interface "org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume" member "Mount"   
   error name "(unset)" destination "org.freedesktop.Hal")   
      
   So after checking the D-BUS, HAL, KDE media:/ Howto on the Gentoo Wiki   
   site the only thing I had not done was adding the right user to the   
   plugdev group but this has been taken care of now but it's still a no go   
   (I've reloaded the affected services too).   
      
   The message has changed however:   
      
   Connection is closed   
      
   I'm sure tis something simple and I can solve it by putting an entry in   
   /etc/fstab and having it user-mountable but sometimes the device node   
   changes so this is not the preferred solution.   
      
   Anything I can try next?

   I'm sick of following my dreams!   
   I'll just ask where they're going and hook up with them later...
