Bug Description

Binary package hint: eog

Intrepid Alpha6 fully updated.
When you have just installed ubuntu, you don't usually have the rights to mount volumes.

Eog does nothing when you want to open a folder, in this case a volume, that is not mounted and which you don't have rights to mount (yet).

The expected behaviour should be running policykit.
It's similar to when you want to access to a volume from computer:///... :
has rights? -> open
hasn't rights? -> ask password

thank you for your bug report, is that specific to eog? that seems to be an upstream issue, could you open it on bugzilla.gnome.org too where people writting the software will read it?
