Hi,
I have some kind of permissions problem, probably related to systemd. When
I plug a USB drive and try to mount it with thunar, it says "not authorized
to perform operation". The drive can be mounted with udisks from the
command line
1|ernest at doriath:~$ udisksctl mount -b /dev/sdg1

Mounted /dev/sdg1 at /media/ernest/37FA-40B4.
I noticed that now I can't suspend, shutdown or reboot as normal user
either. I'm using Debian testing, XFCE 4.12, systemd-shim and sys V init.
Any hint appreciated.
