Well, something strange is indeed happening.
I have been bitten by the "no USB detection" bug, but only partially.
Let me explain: I have a 256M LG USB stick that still appears (even
with latest kernel + autofs) just fine as a new icon on the
"computer:///" nautilus "address" (and also on GNOME desktop). It is
also nicely automounted.
However, my new 1G PQI stick is detected by kernel/HAL/whatever, but
doesn't show up anywhere. It can still be manually mounted, though.
/var/log/messages shows this for each of them:

Can anyone spot any difference?

Here we can see HAL proceeds further for LG stick. Anyone knows the reason?
I am not sure this is a problem with the latest kernel... sadly I just
removed previous kernel, can't test it right now (will try to download
it later).
Correcting myself: this is not the first time I use this PQI stick on
my F7 box, it used to work well with previous kernels (I can't precise
if it worked with the kernel before the last one, though).
Regards,
Andre
