Udev Mounting - DBus error RemoteVolumeMonitor.Failed

Hello.

I have been using thunar-git for a while and every time a mount an external media (cd/dvd, flash memory, etc....) I get this error:

"DBus error org.gtk.Private.RemoteVolumeMonitor.Failed: An operation is already pending."

The drive mounts and I don't have any problems, but the error is sort of annoying. As far as I can tell, the error doesn't bring any ill effects except having to close the dialog box. Does anyone know how I can prevent this error from showing or fix it?

Thanks!

Re: Udev Mounting - DBus error RemoteVolumeMonitor.Failed

Solved. I created the file

/etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/org.freedesktop.udisks.pkla

Here is my file:

[Local Users]
Identity=unix-user:johnny
Identity=unix-group:storage
Action=org.freedesktop.udisks.*
ResultAny=yes
ResultInactive=no
ResultActive=yes

No more problems with thunar (there was an option to add in the "Action" section to allow the automounting of the internal drives, but i don't remember. I don't need it).

EDIT: I think that you can also do:

[Local Users]
Identity=unix-user:*
Identity=unix-group:storage
Action=org.freedesktop.udisks.*
ResultAny=yes
ResultInactive=no
ResultActive=yes

If you want allow to a generic user this option.
