I am having a problem when using Gnome desktop environment with KDM display manager. If I try and mount removable media by clicking on it under Places, or Places->Computer I get a pop up window telling me: Unable to mount location Not Authorized I can mount the media just fine from a terminal. Also, if I attempt to use the gui for administrative tasks, some (but not all) fail to provide an authentication dialog, and thus I cannot perform the task. For example Synaptic Package Manager works just fine, but 'User Settings' under 'Users and Groups' does not. I suspect the answer is very simple, but I'm wearing out my keyboard googling to no avail. I am running Kubuntu 10.04 AMD64 and I added gnome by installing ubuntu-desktop. As I mentioned, I am using KDM for a display manager, and I wish to remain with that. I also tried installing Ubuntu 10.04 AMD64 and adding KDM by installing kubuntu-desktop, however the result is the same for the combination KDM + Gnome. Thanks for any insight you can provide _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
