Relatively new install of ubuntu hardy on an eeepc. One of my
coworkers set it up and I don't know if it is something that they did.
The 1000 user can't mount and hal won't automount removable media
because of permissions.
The two GUI tools I have tried to correct this are Users & Groups, and
Authorizations. Still no go.
I am thinking of trying a new approach. Create a new user. If the new
user has the correct permissions, remove the current handicapped 1000
user, and delete the corresponding home directory. Then recreate a new
user with that name.
I have never removed the primary 1000 account. Should I expect any
problems? Is there a better way to fix this?
I have searched for answers to the permissions problem and the lack of
answers leads me to believe the problem is with something we did, and
no one else has encountered.
