Hello. Since this morning, Gnome (?) doesn't mount USB sticks and CDs automatically anymore. I installed/updated the following packages at that time:

Although sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.22-r2 has been installed, I'm not using this kernel yet. I'm still using sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.22-r1. And I have not compiled/installed a new kernel since then (ie. when automount worked and now). When I plugin a USB stick, I see the following messages in kern.log: ,----[ kern.log syslog ] | Aug 2 12:18:53 winnb000488 usb 5-5: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 14 | Aug 2 12:18:53 winnb000488 usb 5-5: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice | Aug 2 12:18:53 winnb000488 scsi7 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices | Aug 2 12:18:53 winnb000488 usb-storage: device found at 14 | Aug 2 12:18:53 winnb000488 usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning | Aug 2 12:18:58 winnb000488 usb-storage: device scan complete | Aug 2 12:18:58 winnb000488 scsi 7:0:0:0: Direct-Access Multi Flash Reader 1.00 PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 | Aug 2 12:18:59 winnb000488 sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] 4022272 512-byte hardware sectors (2059 MB) | Aug 2 12:18:59 winnb000488 sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off | Aug 2 12:18:59 winnb000488 sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 03 00 00 00 | Aug 2 12:18:59 winnb000488 sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through | Aug 2 12:18:59 winnb000488 sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] 4022272 512-byte hardware sectors (2059 MB) | Aug 2 12:18:59 winnb000488 sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off | Aug 2 12:18:59 winnb000488 sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 03 00 00 00 | Aug 2 12:18:59 winnb000488 sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through | Aug 2 12:18:59 winnb000488 sdb: sdb1 | Aug 2 12:18:59 winnb000488 sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk | Aug 2 12:18:59 winnb000488 sd 7:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg2 type 0 `---- So the system DOES discover that something has been plugged in. hal is running: ,----[ ps awux | grep -v grep | grep hal ] | 102 10791 0.0 0.4 5764 4040 ?
