Disk & USB Automount in Kicksecure

[59mpci2GJ5xlHhY]

For anyone who reads this and has the issue I had, I will summarize what I think fixed it.

@madaidan

thunar-volman manages mounting and is disabled by default in security-misc

Enable thunar-volman

In terminal: sudo nano /etc/skel/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/thunar.xml

Line 15 <property name"misc-volume-management" type=“bool” value=“false”/>

Change from false to true

@Patrick

Check if gvfs is installed. To install:

sudo apt install gvfs

Reboot might be required.

@Patrick

go to:

• thunar → edit → preferences → advanced → check “enable volume management”
• thunar → edit → preferences → advanced → configure → check the two mount removeable → close

Insert USB device.

@Patrick

Also any of these packages might be missing:

default-dbus-session-bus
dbus-session-bus
gvfs
policykit-1-gnome
polkit-1-auth-agent
thunar-volman
tumbler
udisks2
xdg-user-dirs
libcairo-gobject2
libpangocairo-1.0-0
libxfce4panel-2.0-4

If still doesnt work try other things in the thread or:

@Patrick

What you can also try:

sudo systemctl mask proc-hidepid.service
sudo unlink /usr/bin/pkexec
sudo cp /usr/bin/pkexec.security-misc-orig /usr/bin/pkexec

Reboot required.
