Generally in Linux a remote user by default won't get access to local
devices. I'm not sure in the case of VNC but in the vast majority of
cases remote desktops will have emulated devices that access the users
local device for that functionality.
In all cases can you access the devices when logged in locally on the
machine?
It worked for me when testing the Xfce image on the Banana Pi.
Do you locally, not remotely?
Also I have to get Xfce running locally. I thought I could just issue
startx or startxfce4 from the command line, but that failed. Any suggestion?
The way to do this is to enable lightdm and the graphical target in systemd
From the console, I tried:
systemctl start display-manager
And the local connection was logged in and the screen seemed to try and
go into Xfce, but nothing happened. So I power cycled, and right away
from the console started display-manager. This time the local login
prompt went away and eventually got the Xfce login dialog.
Boy is local Xfce slow on this Cubieboard2! Going to have to try it on
my Cubietruck to see if it is a matter of memory (same A20 chip).
Alternatively, how do I change back from multi-user target. I suppose I
can google that. But can it be done temporarily?
If they work when logged in locally it's due to PolicyKit and the
xfce-polkit package and it's a security feature, not a bug.

On my Xfce desktop (well VNCed into it) as me. I inserted a usb
device. It shows up as an icon in tghe workspace. I go to mount it and
get "Not authorized to perform operation".
Nothing interesting on the console:

what do I have to do so a user can mount a USB device?
thanks
