well mine's actually an external, group == plugdev, /dev/sda, but adding myself to disk nonetheless did the trick. I realize disk is a security risk, as it gives full access to hd's as well. It would seem there is something with the actual mounting process of hal/udev that's using disk wrongly.
Thing is that with my external I WAS experiencing the same issues mounting floppies as everyone else even though I was in group plugdev and the device had group ownership of plugdev. I'm really not sure why grp disk comes into play here. -- media:/ does not handle floppy mounting correctly https://launchpad.net/bugs/30207 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
