Another very important setting to check:
Use hal-device to check the 'volume.ignore' property of each
volume. gnome-mount will refuse to mount any volume with
volume.ignore=true.
Now I need to find out how *all* of my disks got set to 'true'. |

I just was confused having lost all internal devices. I just found out how to set the volume.ignore to false.
Following line of code sets those ignores to false for each volume, which has a label (that are the usual Partitions).
Important is to run it as root!
Code: | for i in `lshal | grep -e '^udi' | sed "s/udi = '//;s/'//" | grep volume`; do if [[ "" != "$(hal-get-property --udi $i --key volume.label)" ]] ; then hal-set-property --udi $i --key volume.ignore --bool true; fi; done |

That's quite a script. I cheated and changed the 'true' to 'false' in
/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/99-storage-policy-fixed-drives.fdi
and that worked for me. |

volume.ignore is false for my external drive, but still no luck...
What's weird is my box at home does properly mount it, with gnome-volume-manager and nautilus compiled just the same way. |
