Hello,

I just did an Update of a Beta3 system and a fresh install of a Beta4 
with KDE. All of the stuff works fine :) but I got aware of an annoying 
issue which I want to discuss. For every storage media (CD,DVD,USB 
stick) I need to provide the root password for accessing any device. Is 
this behavior works as defined this way? Is this intended for security 
reasons?

For me, I can not and also do not want to give every user the root 
password in order to read/write data from/to a removal media. How do I 
reconfigure the system to give regular users the ability to mount and 
read/write local removal storage media? Are there any side effects to be 
taken care of after the reconfiguration?

Thanks a lot in advance
Best Regards
Klaus
