Issues mounting USB devices in Thunar under Openbox

Basically, whenever I attempt to mount a USB device in Thunar, I get a message that says:

Failed to mount "4.0 GB Filesystem
Not authorized

My .xinitrc looks like:
exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch openbox-session

It works when I use GDM to start openbox, but when I use slim, it fails no matter what I try. If anyone could help me out, I'd really appreciate it.

remove "dbus-launch" from your .xinitrc and see if it works.

Check for *.pacnew files in '/etc/pam.d/' (specifically /etc/pam.d/slim.pacnew).
