I have an iRiver MP3 player. Previously, when I have attached it to my

 still got the following messages in /var/log/messages

[ snip ]

 And I can still get access to the player by manually mounting
 /dev/sdc5 to the appropriate directory. But it used to be an automatic
 process and I'd like to get that functionality back.

 I recently did a clean installation of Fedora 8 onto this system. I'm
 pretty sure that it has worked since the upgrade (but I can't be 100%
 sure of that).

This gets weirder. This morning I rebooted the system, and everything
started working fine. When I plugged in the iRiver it was
automatically mounted and an icon appeared on the desktop.

When I got home this evening and tried again, it had stopped working.
It was behaving the same way as I described yesterday. The computer
has been on all day with no-one using it.

Not sure what is going on.

Are you sure the iRiver isn't failing? Does it work well when attached to another computer? I'd plug it into a different machine ( more than once) to make sure it performs as expected on a consistent basis. Are you always plugging into the same USB port? have you tried others? What other troubleshooting have you done?
