Bug Description
Binary package hint: policykit-1
Each time I try to mount an internal partition Ubuntu prompts me for a password. If I press the "Cancel" button it gives me an error message which says "Unable to mount partition; Not Authorized". It should give no error messages when pressing the cancel button. It should just close the authentication dialog.

I think this is probably a bug in whichever software is calling PolicyKit -- I'm going to guess gnome-vfs, for starters. It's the one producing the "Unable to mount" alert when it should just be failing silently.
