12.04 won't mount external drives

[Robert Holtzman]

Finally decided to see what 12.04 w/Unity was all about. Played with it
briefly a while back but went back to Debian.

Biggest problem so far is that it won't mount an external drive, flash
or hdd. True in Unity and xfce both. Doesn't show in /etc/fstab so can't 
mount it manually either.

Anyone have a goat I can sacrifice (I was going to say virgin but I
could hear the moderator's strangled gasp, so I didn't)?

Any pointers appreciated.
