Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: hal

This may be a duplicate of Bug #86292 - I don't know.

However, I have quite a bit of debugging information, as this is a lab
of 84 PCs, and we'd like to get this working.

Background:
Authentication is via LDAP (to eDirectory), and accounts are shared via NIS from the local LAB server. /home is NFS from the same server.

We have one user (the LAB admin, who's account isn't on edirectory, but
in /etc/passwd on the server), and flash drives work for him in KDE. In
GNOME they work manually (gnome-mount), but not automatically.

We are using Feisty, because of bug #65827.

It seems like HAL is picking up the drive insertion, but GNOME or KDE
doesn't get any further.

** Affects: hal (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
