20 It doesn't, but I was under the assumption it was because I'm using
21 systemd. Since I installed gnome-shell-3.4 this has stopped working;
22 my findings can be seen on the bug to freedesktop.org:
23
24 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53905
25
26 It hits not only USB mounting; it also hits suspend/hibernate (I'm no
27 longer allowed to suspend as user), setting up printers, and basically
28 everything related to polkit. The root of the problem seems to be that
29 (somehow) gnome-shell gets registered as PolitUnixSession instead of
30 PolkitUnixProcess or PolkitSystemBusName, and that case is not covered
31 in subject_to_jsval.
32
33 Could you run polkitd without the --no-debug option (I don't have
34 OpenRC installed, nor /etc/init.d, so I don't know if that is how it's
35 run under OpenRC) and see on the logs if you see the following?

41 If so, please state it in the bug. David hasn't answered in three
42 weeks; two of them he was at the Kernel Summit in San Diego, but I
43 think it's time for me to nudge him again. An independent report
44 should help.
45
46 I'm running GNOME 3 unstable and with my systemd-only overlay, so I'm
47 used to this kind of things happening from time to time. Also, it has
48 easy workarounds (pmount, pm-suspend, etc.), so I haven't been really
49 concerned into fixing it.
