Okay, sorted now ! :o)

I mounted it with "defaults" which includes "nouser", hence no
permission to mount it !
So I modified fstab with "defaults,user,sync", and it now works
perfectly, Gnome even popped up a little dialog saying "There are
photographs on this device, would you like me to import them into your
photo album ?"
What a lovely Warty that is !! :o)

So, it's hardly plug&play, but it works fine nonetheless :o)

Maybe Hoary makes it more plug&play, but after testing Hoary for 2
months, I am not too hot about it anymore. Plus, the hard drive I used
to use to test it, died the other day, so no way to install it anymore
anyway :-/ don't want to risk a "dist-upgrade", brrrr !
