[Bug 94721] Re: USB flash not mounting on insertion

[Stefano Rivera]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: hal
  
  This may be a duplicate of Bug #86292 - I don't know.
  
  However, I have quite a bit of debugging information, as this is a lab
  of 84 PCs, and we'd like to get this working.
  
  Background:
  Authentication is via LDAP (to eDirectory), and accounts are shared via NIS from the local LAB server. /home is NFS from the same server.
  
- We have one user (the LAB admin, who's account isn't on edirectory, but
- in /etc/passwd on the server), and flash drives work for him in KDE. In
- GNOME they work manually (gnome-mount), but not automatically.
+ We have one user (TeePOG, the LAB admin, who's account isn't on eDirectory, but in /etc/passwd on the server), and flash drives work for him in KDE. In GNOME they work manually (gnome-mount), but not automatically.
+ He is a member of "admin".
+ 
+ We have another non-eDirectory user, except not in "admin", and it
+ doesn't work for him.
  
  We are using Feisty, because of bug #65827.
  
  It seems like HAL is picking up the drive insertion, but GNOME or KDE
  doesn't get any further.
