--- Comment #2 from Jonathan Farley <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #1) > I have a LUKS-encrypted EXT4 drive that gets mounted as expected here. > Perhaps the filesystem is relevant. > > Are you clicking on the "Mount and Open" button in the Disks & Devices popup? If you cick on 'Mount and Open' in the taskbar the response after the password dialog is "You are not authorised to mount this device". If you click on the drive in the 'Places' section of dolphin, it brings up the password dialog, then says the same. However at this point the drive is unlocked, but not mounted. If you click on the drive in 'places', it just brings up the enter password dialog each time. - In KDE5, it would unlock and mount and clicking on it again would open the drive. To mount it after unlocking I have created this script: #!/bin/bash usage() { cat <<EOF EncMount - Manage mounting and unmounting of unlocked LUKS-encrypted drives. Usage: EncMount Mount all unlocked but unmounted LUKS drives. EncMount -m Explicitly mount all unlocked but unmounted LUKS drives. EncMount -u Unmount and lock all currently mounted LUKS drives. EncMount -h Show this help message. Details: - Devices must already be unlocked (e.g., via Dolphin or manually). - Uses udisksctl to mount/unmount/lock without root permissions. - Only affects devices under /dev/mapper that are actual block devices. - Skips system devices like /dev/mapper/control. - Mounted volumes appear under /media/<user>/ as usual. Examples: EncMount # Automatically mount all decrypted but unmounted drives EncMount -u # Unmount and lock all decrypted drives EncMount -h # Show this help EOF exit 0 } mount_unlocked() { for dev in /dev/mapper/*; do if [ ! -b "$dev" ] || [[ "$dev" == *control ]]; then continue fi if mount | grep -q "$dev"; then echo "$dev is already mounted." continue fi echo "Attempting to mount $dev..." udisksctl mount -b "$dev" done } unmount_and_lock() { for dev in /dev/mapper/*; do if [ ! -b "$dev" ] || [[ "$dev" == *control ]]; then continue fi if mount | grep -q "$dev"; then echo "Unmounting $dev..." udisksctl unmount -b "$dev" fi echo "Locking $dev..." udisksctl lock -b "$dev" done } # Parse CLI options case "$1" in ""|-m) mount_unlocked ;; -u) unmount_and_lock ;; -h) usage ;; *) echo "Unknown option: $1" usage ;; esac Which mounts the disc, but I have to navigate to /media to use them. I have tried altering polkit rule (cat 10-udisks2-mount.rules) to: /* Allow members of the 'plugdev' group to mount removable and system volumes without auth */ polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) { if (subject.isInGroup("plugdev") && subject.local && subject.active) { if (action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount" || action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount-system" ) { return polkit.Result.YES; } } }); and added another rule (80-udisks2-user-unlock.rules): /* Allow active local users to authenticate as themselves to unlock system encrypted volumes */ polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) { if (subject.local && subject.active) { if (action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.encrypted-unlock-system") { // Require authentication from the current user return polkit.Result.AUTH_SELF; } } }); which I thought would cure it, but alas, no - I am still not authorised. I suspect it is probably ntfs inside the encrypted disc, and I will try and make up an ext4 disc at some point to try. But that doesn't get round my needing to use encrypted ntfs on occasions. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
