I have a brand new, unaltered (as yet) 4Gb USB flash drive from Micro Center that does not get automounted when I plug it into my 5.2 desktop (home or work). It shows up in lsusb, and I can mount it manually, so why would it not mount automatically? Note that when I plug in other flash drives on the same machine before and after, they all get automounted as usual. Curious.... mhr
