Description of problem: After upgrading from FC4 to FC5, when I put a disk in either my internal CD-ROM drive or my external USB CD/DVD Recorder, I get the error "Cannot mount volume You are not privileged to mount the volume 'Volume name'" After manually mounting (sudo mount /dev/cdwriter /media/cdrecorder), selecting 'Unmount' from the desktop icon's context menu, I receive the error "Cannot unmount volume You are not privileged to unmount the volume 'Volume name'" However, when I hit OK, the unmount occurs and the drive ejects the disc. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): FC5 release, hal-0.5.7-3 (Is this a hal problem? I'm not actually sure.) How reproducible: Consistently Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert disk in drive 2. Wait. 3. Select 'unmount' from icon's context menu. 4. Dismiss dialog. ("Ok") Actual results: No mounted disk, either via 'mount' nor via icon on desktop. Unmounted disk, preceded by error dialog. Expected results: Mounted disk. Cleanly unmounted disk. Additional info:
can you post the contents of your /etc/fstab and /etc/fstab.hal-save files? Thanks.
With pleasure (in testing this, I discovered that audio cd's Do The Right Thing, while data CDs don't. I don't know if this is new behaviour or not.
