Well, it works and no message is prompted. Running it with debug options show this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ pmount -d /dev/sda1 usb resolved /dev/sda1 to device /dev/sda1 mount point to be used: /media/usb no iocharset given, current locale encoding is ANSI_X3.4-1968 Cleaning lock directory /var/lock/pmount/_dev_sda1 device_whitelist: checking /etc/pmount.allow... device_whitlisted(): nothing matched, returning 0 find_sysfs_device: looking for sysfs directory for device 8:1 find_sysfs_device: checking whether /dev/sda1 is on /sys/block/sda (8:0) find_sysfs_device: major device numbers match find_sysfs_device: minor device numbers do not match, checking partitions... find_sysfs_device: checking whether device /dev/sda1 matches partition 8:0 find_sysfs_device: checking whether device /dev/sda1 matches partition 8:1 find_sysfs_device: -> partition matches, belongs to block device /sys/block/sda device_removable: corresponding block device for /dev/sda1 is /sys/block/sda get_blockdev_attr: value of /sys/block/sda/removable == 1 policy check passed spawnv(): executing /sbin/cryptsetup '/sbin/cryptsetup' 'isLuks' '/dev/sda1' spawn(): /sbin/cryptsetup terminated with status 255 device is not LUKS encrypted, or cryptsetup with LUKS support is not installed locking mount point directory mount point directory locked spawnv(): executing /bin/mount '/bin/mount' '-t' 'udf' '-o' 'nosuid,nodev,user,async,atime,noexec,uid=1003,gid=1003,umask=007' '/dev/sda1' '/media/usb' spawn(): /bin/mount terminated with status 32 spawnv(): executing /bin/mount '/bin/mount' '-t' 'iso9660' '-o' 'nosuid,nodev,user,async,atime,noexec,uid=1003,gid=1003' '/dev/sda1' '/media/usb' spawn(): /bin/mount terminated with status 32 spawnv(): executing /bin/mount '/bin/mount' '-t' 'vfat' '-o' 'nosuid,nodev,user,quiet,shortname=mixed,async,atime,noexec,uid=1003,gid=1003,umask=077' '/dev/sda1' '/media/usb' spawn(): /bin/mount terminated with status 0 unlocking mount point directory mount point directory unlocked > If pmount works on its own then the problem is with KDE.

There are some questions also, I have found that you cannot have any device that mount in /sys. I have had some devices and I have comment it in the fstab (and also the /dev/sda that pmount said that there was a problem) and reboot, etc.... but if I do a cat /etc/mtab I found this: .... proc /proc proc rw 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs rw 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,gid=5,mode=620 0 0 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0 ..... usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs rw 0 0 ... binfmt_misc /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc binfmt_misc rw 0 0 .... this is normal?
