Description of problem: Automount of Kingston Data Traveler USB thumbdrives is broken in Fedora 7 i386. This appears to be either a problem with gnome-mount or HAL or both (assigning here to gnome-mount). When running hal-device as root there is no such instance as of any devices with any info on them for 'KINGSTON' nor when trying to run gnome-mount -d /dev/sdc1 (corresponding to the KINGSTON device according to dmesg) results in the device being mounted. Only way to mount is as root from CLI. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-mount-0.6-2.fc7 hal-0.5.9-8.fc7 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Update F7 to the latest batch of updates. 2. Insert a Kingston USB Data Traveler thumbdrive to a USB port. Actual results: The USB drive is not mounted. Expected results: The USB drive to be mounted. Additional info: Attached are: hal-devices output from the system this is happening dmesg output strace output of gnome-mount -d /dev/sdc1
Created attachment 160377 [details] Hal-device output
Created attachment 160378 [details] dmesg output
Created attachment 160380 [details] strace output from running gnome-mount against the device reported by dmesg
Forgot to metion that this _only_ affects Fedora i386, as x86_64 doesn't exhibit this problem.
