I installed fedora 12 xfce
and when i run Gigolo to mount windows partitions i get Authentication is required.
In fedora 11 xfce there was a tool that change the system permission to allow any
user to mount any partition,but i cant find it in fedora 12.
please help me how to fix this problem and set all the permission needed for any other application.

After reading from the Gigolo Help (http://www.uvena.de/gigolo/help.html), trying to install the gnome-mount wrapper script for exo-mount, trying gnome-mount utility with apt-get, trying to update my ~/.local/share/applications/defaults.list, trying to add my user account to the fuse group, and trying various combinations of the above elements, I finally found something that worked.
I installed and ran ntfs-config. On my Xubuntu 9.10 installation, I achieved this with the following commands:
$ sudo apt-get install ntfs-config $ gksudo ntfs-config
So far, it is working. I'm not sure what ntfs-config does, but unfortunately I don't have the time right now to find out. I would welcome additional info about the utility.

This problem is also occuring in xubuntu 9.10, perhaps other systems as well. – pcapademic – 2010-01-04T02:03:24.177
