I've also had nothing but trouble with my automounting USB devices since upgrading to Gutsy. I ended up resolving the issue by rolling back my version of HAL to the Fiesty one. Even then, my USB thumbdrive only automounts occasionally.
If you get it worked out, please let me know what you did.

Well, it's been a while since I've had to fuss with my automounting setup, but I've got UDEV, HAL, and gnome-volume-manager working together to mount devices automatically for me.

Here's a debian specific guide on getting this set up: http://www.mythic-beasts.com/~mark/random/hal/ <http://www.mythic-beasts.com/%7Emark/random/hal/>

If you need to do custom things on mount for a specific device, the gentoo wiki has an okay guide on the subject here: http://gentoo-wiki.com/UDEV_Overview

If you need to mount an NTFS partitioned device, let me know..there's some hackery that you have to do to the hal config files.

    Trying to get usb devices to work when they're plugged in so I don't
    have to reboot with everything plugged in.

    Running Ubuntu 7.10

    I've tried

    sudo apt-get install usbmgr

    &

    sudo apt-get install usbmount

    Each removes the other so it's one or the other. Neither seem to get
    my mouse or printer working when I plug them in so.. (unless I need to
    reboot to get these packages working).
