Ok, I got it Mikhail, thank You for the info.
I've downloaded the same version of udisks as I have in my ubuntu (it's: 1.0.41).
Then I unpacked the source code and applied with Your patch.
Everything was ok.. Configure - ok. Make - ok. Even make check said everything is ok.
But make install - failed...

This is my terminal report from the terminal:

---

So I'm suggesting I can't install it, but do not know why..
When I tried to remove udisks from my system first, aptitude/synaptic wanted to remove all the stuff, I mean the desktop metapackage with session and desktop stuff. So I didn't do it. I thought this could help, but I didn't even check that.
How should I install it?

PS.On the "official" site I found the newest version is 1.9.x (1.9.3), but I don't know if this is a good solution to install a software, which is not in the ubuntu repository, in a proper version..
