With F9 a normal user can't mount an ntfs partition. Mounting the
partition with nautilus I'm asked for root password, after entering
nothing is mounted. I receive this message. As root I'm able to mount
just fine.
Summary:
SELinux is preventing polkit-resolve- (polkit_resolve_t) "ptrace" to
<Unknown>
(unconfined_t).
Detailed Description:
SELinux denied access requested by polkit-resolve-. It is not expected
that this
access is required by polkit-resolve- and this access may signal an
intrusion
attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or configuration
of the
application is causing it to require additional access.
Allowing Access:
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ
(http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Or you can
disable
SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is not
recommended.
Please file a bug report
(http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi)
against this package.
