I seem to have some authorisation issues under 9.10, having upgraded from 9.04 (both 64-bit).
When I plug in a USB stick a window pops up to say I am not authorised to mount it.
When I go to admin->users and groups it says I am not authorised to make changes.
I read somewhere else to try the following:
caesum@darkstar:~/Desktop$ cat /etc/polkit-1/localauthority.conf.d/51-ubuntu-admin.conf
[Configuration]
AdminIdentities=unix-group:admin
caesum@darkstar:~/Desktop$ groups
caesum adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev scanner lpadmin admin netdev powerdev
but I can't see what's wrong here, any ideas anyone?
