Rusty debian squeeze install no drives and weird root account behaviour.
Hi guys,
I just installed a debian squeeze KDE-based LiveDVD snapshot from debian.org to my harddrive and it's kinda rusty out-of-the-box.
I can't mount my other partitions. When I try, I get:
org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.volume.PermissionDenied : refusing to mount device /dev/
sda2 for uid=1000
I found out, that I should check that: usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.udisks.policy
has "auth_admin" set to "yes" like so <allow_active>yes</allow_active> under <defaults> and it already does.
I also tried chmod'ing and chown'ing my way around the drive-issue, no luck.
To add insult to injury, when I try to start Kate or KWrite as kdesudo to work on things, it also gives me a graphical root prompt where it then denies my password like it's wrong.
I have already upgraded the install to the latest possible pr. my sources.list file
Hope you can help.
Thx
