I followed the debugging steps from the website that you kindly provided. All
the files have been attached (is there another way to do "attach multiple files
at once" in the bugzilla system? This seems like a lot of waste of screen space :)

I would like to tell you what I have done step-by-step. I got some rather
interesting results this time around (good stuff!)
After booting up my PC, I tried to insert the USB stick and see what was going
to happen... I waited about 5 minutes and nothing... (as far as the USB mounting
goes)
Next I proceeded to the website that you provided and followed all the
instructions...
I took the USB stick out and did the "killall gnome-volume-manager". I checked
with "ps aux" (before and after the killall). "gnome-volume-manager" process was
gone after killing it.
Next I executed the following: "gnome-volume-manager 2>&1 | tee gvm.log" Few
messages poped up in the console... nice
Then I went ahead and placed USB stick into the USB port... this is when things
went a little different than I would expect!
After waiting for about 1 min. watching the console and more messages that
showed up, the actual USB stick mounted quite nicely! Nautilus opened as one
would expect and I was able to browse the pen drive with no problem (no manual
mounting... it JUST WORKED).
I followed the rest of steps on the web site and attached them all as requested.
I sure hope that this can help with squashing this bug (if this is
gnome-volume-manager bug at all). Please let me know if there is anything else
that I can do to help out.

Thank you for your time.
