I have one of those small USB sticks and I it won't mount anymore. It
used to and now when I insert it I get an error:
Cannot mount volume.
Error org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.PermissionDeniedByPolicy.
under details I get:
hal-storage-mount-removable no<--(action,result)
How do I fix this so I can mount my USB drive?
This is a known (and as yet unfixed) bug in openSUSE 10.3
My guess is that you are booting into runlevel 3 and then
starting X windows by typing startx. If you do that, then
you will not be able to mount a USB stick and you will get
the error message above.
The work-around is to set the machine to boot directly to
runlevel 5 (a running X window system). If you do this then
your USB sticks will work just fine.
If I am wrong about what you are doing, please let us know.
