[gentoo-user] Mounting CD's etc

[Bill Kenworthy]

Typing "id" on a terminal on my gnome desktop gives the following - but
when I insert a dvd I get "not authorised to mount ..." in a popup.
What more do I need to do?

You will need to set up pollution aka policykit. I use udisks to get
automounting taken care of instead of Hal. See an earlier thread for
details. I am working on a full policykit setup to document with examples
for reboot and shutdown in lxde.
