Problem mounting USBpen

Hi

This is what I get when put in a USBpen and push the "Open in another window button", after a dialog windows pops up:

"A security policy in place prevents this sender from sending this message to this recipient, see message bus configuration file (rejected message had interface "org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume" member "Mount" error name "(unset)" destination "org.freedesktop.Hal")"

What is going on here ???

Add your user id to the floppy, audio, video, cdrom and plugdev groups. If you do this manually (as root), you can edit /etc/group and append your user id to each of those preceded by a comma; e.g.,

Code:

...
plugdev:x:83:root,your_user_id
...

You can also use the usermod utility to do so.

Log out and log back in.
