Bug#651575: general: usb drive (automount) has wrong permissions, regular user cannot read/write to device/folder

December 09th, 2011 - 11:30 pm ET by kenneth.h | Report spam
Package: general
Severity: normal

It appears from web searching that this may have to do with udev rules.
Usually, automounting allows user access but I am not able to read/write w/out
having to manually changing permissions.



Debian Release: 6.0.3
APT prefers stable-updates
APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable')
Architecture: powerpc (ppc)

Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-powerpc
Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8)
Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash

1) What are the permissions?

2) How are you automounting? The usual udisks way as seen in

?

3) What partition layout and filesystems are on the drive?

4) What desktop display manager and environment are you using?
