I'm using KDE. When I plug in a vfat-formatted USB stick KDE tries to mount it,
but Konqueror displays an error box with this message:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda, missing
codepage or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog -
try dmesg | tail or so
In the output of dmesg I find the following lines, the last indicating the
error:
usb 4-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 6

Mounting the stick as root with the "mount" command works.
The problems disappears when line 155 in
/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/20-storage-methods.fdi
is commented out:

After changing the file hald needs to be restarted.
