Ok, I`m a step closer.
The Problem: We authenticate our users against ldap.
An hal or dbus is having problems with that.
I have modifcated the /etc/dbus/system.d/hal.conf. Now, the default for 
all users is "allow" instead of "deny"..
But now, I get the error "hal-storage-removable-mount refused uid 2015", 
which is my uid. As user root I get the same error, only the uid is 0 then.
