And more importantly, why is it having a cow with kernel 5.0.5 on one,
just one, of my servers:
Apr 9 17:48:44 monster dbus-daemon[1223]: [system] Failed to activate
service 'org.freedesktop.UDisks2': timed out
(service_start_timeout=25000ms)
Are there issues related to that error? Apart from usdisk* maybe not
starting, forever ..?
Oh, just the small inconvenience of plugging in my MP3 and not having
it automount, any more.
If you like Gui mounts (via file manager etc) this might help:
----------
// Allow user 'xxx' to perform any operation on
// drives without having to authenticate
//
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if (action.id.indexOf("org.freedesktop.udisks2.") == 0 &&
subject.user == "xxx") {
return polkit.Result.YES;
}
});
--------
You might want save it to sth. like:
/etc/polkit-1/rules.d/90-xxx-disk.admin.rules
"xxx" above is a non-root username ...
But I'd suggest a manual mount anyways, not the gui routines ...
"mount -v /mnt/mp3device"
But I'm old, so be free to ignore my control obsessions
vs. stupid computers .. :)
Note that the polkit snippet above won't help, IIRC, for this last
manual mount command: it probably only works for GUI mounts, and it
might even start usdisks2. So, your choice ... :)
Best Regards,
Wolfgang
