Thanks for the hint. It doesn't really help, unfortunately. The machine
in question has only fixed disks, so I don't see a reason to enable
udisksd at all. I stopped and disabled the service for now.
I wish someone would tell this to the thread I created called vmlinuz: the
"sadly no response" is why I created the treads vmlinuz and one other; it
is the realisation that these fine people who are having the problems
might not get any help. I could almost quit, and move over to Ubuntu
because of their misunderstanding, which I get angered and frustrated at.
