[solved] USB drives won't auto mount

When I plug in a drive, I get this error message:

Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.24" (uid=1000 pid=4499 comm="exo-mount) interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume" member="Mount" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="org.freedesktop.Hal" (uid=0 pid=3069 comm="/usr/sbin/hald)).

2nd harddrive:

Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.20" (uid=1000 pid=3537 comm="exo-mount) interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume" member="Mount" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="org.freedesktop.Hal" (uid=0 pid=3058 comm="/usr/sbin/hald)).

There are fixes in other forums, but they are all radically differnet, and the one's I tried aren't working.
I have an eee pc with xfce and slim.

I know this is a perimssion problems since auto mount works fine for root. Could anyone tell me the (probably simple) fix for this? Thanks.

HAL:

Also check your .xinitrc and make sure your lines matches this:

exec ck-launch-session startxfce4

Lastly, you can also use udev to automount your drives:

Thanks alot, it works now! I was also having problems with my user not staying in groups (kept having to add myself to the power group, etc) and now it seems that is also fixed.
