Martin, is it not supposed to work with pmount? Like it did in Dapper? I know the whole gnome-mount / gnome-volume-manager interaction changed...

Using mount as root works for me, but that is very inconvenient. I got used to the nice way it detected the LUKS volume (on my SD memory card via USB adapter), mapped it with dm-setup, prompted for passphrase in a Gnome dialog (cryptsetup-luks) and then called pmount and voila! I could unmount (from Disk Mounter applet), put in a diff SD card to get pics from my camera or whatever, then put the encrypted SD card back in and get re-prompted for password and auto-mounted it again...

# lsmod | grep dm
dm_crypt 14856 1
dm_mod 60236 3 dm_crypt
