This should be an easy one, but it's just killing me. I have a 1TB USB
hard drive that I don't normally mount on boot, just when I need to move
data over to it, like backups, etc. For some reason when I mount it
that way (using the Available Devices applet on the KDE panel) I can't
access it as my normal user, just root.


How do I fix that?

Yep, worked like a charm. I never thought of doing that. Now, I guess
I'll see how it works next time I mount it. Thanks for the tip.
