NO Automount Works

[King Austria]

After inserting my USB Stick or a CD/DVD No automount works Nothing.
Normally i can open it normally in console but only cd/dvd no usb sticks.
But everything worked ok and nothing was changed.

dmesg puts this out after inserting the usb stick

tnx

let me give you some more info (http://pastebin.com/849495)...

my main question is, what service is repsonsible for automounting removable media by default?

tnx, and happy new year !

Answer: haldaemon

I've managed to overcome a problem with automatic mounting of my combo DVD/CD drive so I've been looking into this. Seems that automatic mounting in FC is generally handled by HAL-daemon. Download hal-gnome and run System->Admin->Hardware (which is hal-gnome). This shows all the devices HAL's aware of. How exactly it handles things isn't clear, but there are a few policy files which handle exceptions located under /usr/share/hal/fdi.

i coudnt do much with hal-gnome or with files under .../fdi,

just in case ,
vi /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/99-redhat-storage-policy-fixed-drives.fdi

is that correct?

do you think that selinux has anything to do with that
