I have a cheap DV camera and I tried to retrieve images off it. I get this:
Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.19" (uid=1000 pid=2393 comm="exo-mount) interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume" member="Mount" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="org.freedesktop.Hal" (uid=0 pid=1184 comm="/usr/sbin/hald)).

I tried this: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/HAL … ion_Denied
It didn't work. I also tried adding adding /usr/sbin/console-kit-daemon to /etc/rc.local as was mentioned in that thread and it didn't work.
Rolling back to an earlier release of hal might work but how do I do that?

xfce4
I get in with "startx"

I end up with this
[root@john john]# pacman -U hal-0.5.13-2-i686.pkg.tar.gz
loading package data...
checking dependencies...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: xorg-server: requires hal>=0.5.14

Try starting xfce from xinitrc with this (apparently it solves a lot of these mounting woes):
exec ck-launch-session xfce4-session
See this for details: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xfc … _Drives.29

I have:
exec ck-launch-session startxfce4
in my ~/.xinitrc
Should I remove that and replace it with exec cki-launch-session xfce4-session ?

It can't hurt to try. Also, the thread linked to on the wiki has some other pointers re /etc/PolicyKit/PolicyKit.conf

Still doesn't seem to help

If that and the PolicyKit.conf didn't work I am afraid I am at a loss. Sorry.

You have tried to mount it manually, right?

Actually I haven't, how do I?

It doesn't work as john though. Unless I'm doing it wrong.. how would you mount it?

Create the mountpoint - make sure that it has the correct pemissions and then mount the device to that location. What have you done?

I just don't know how to mount the device to that location.

man mount
Seriously, this is something you need to come to grips with yourself. It is straightforward enough and, if it doesn't work the first time, there is always Google...
Play around with it and -in the unlikely event you can't get it to work- post any errors.
You are almost there: good luck!
