Unhappy USB stick no longer automounts

FC 11 / Latest updates installed
I can manually mount it from a term window but really prefer automount. Used to work a few days ago so Im looking towards it being some problem/change in a update.

No error messages. Here is a snipet of my logs that shows pulling and reinserting memstick:

Code:

No error messages. I have not seen alot of posts on this and did see one about policykit. But I dont think that is my problem as there is no error message about policy. Could be wrong though.

Anyone else run into this?

I wanted to add to this a bit:

I had the opportunity to get ahold of an external hard drive (usb) and it DID mount right away. For some reason my usb memstick doesnt.

Any ideas anyone?

Solved

For anyone that runs into this stupid OOPS problem here.

When inserting the memstick and seeing it was brought up as /dev/sdb1, I noticed that my fstab file had an entry already for it. I had removed a drive a few days ago and forgot to remove the entry for it in fstab.


Problem solved.
