flash drive automount

[Basanta Shrestha]

Dear Ubuntu Developers,

I have a 512MB DataTraveller Flash Disk. It is automounted under ubuntu
but fails to automount under debian. Has ubuntu patched things up to get
this result? Can this  be achieved under debian?

There is no problem automounting other kinds to flash/thumb drivers! 90%
of them work/automount.

I get a little strange kind of log (as follows) when debian fails to
automont flash drives.


$ /sbin/fdisk -l
