Hi Alex,
thanks for posting this back to the list: It works here as well. Even
better, I believe I might have found the reason for the daemon not being
automatically started. From $ man udisks-daemon:
DESCRIPTION
udisks-daemon provides the org.freedesktop.UDisks service on
the system message bus. Users or administrators should never
need to start this daemon as it will be automatically started
by dbus-daemon(1) whenever an application calls into the
org.freedesktop.UDisks service.
Obviously, there needs to be an application asking for the
"org.freedesktop.UDisks service". On my (and likely your system as well)
there is no such application, hence udisks-daemon is not started. I have
now simply added the command you suggested $ udisks --enumerate to my
.fluxbox/startup which should resolve the issue.
Thanks again for sharing the solution
Linux-Fan
