LOL.
After this, I find quite odd you have to be root to mount a USB stick.
I've never had to be root to do it.
My /etc/fstab says:
/dev/sdb1 /mnt/removable vfat noauto,async,user,exec 0 0
and I can mount it as a user just by clicking on its icon on Konqueror,
for example.
I think what you really need, however, is not automount but maybe HAL.
Check in the wiki and/or docs for info, and don't run away in fear if
you see some page of instruction... after all, you're using Gentoo! :)
