Removable media problems.

[Swordfish]

Hi,

Just got FC5 installed ok, however it does not detect my removable USB drives, or SD cards, when I plug them in in. They will only appear on the desktop or under the /media folder if I plug them in and restart the entire system.

I have tried mount, which then says no entry in Fstab, mtab.
I entered in the sticks to the fstab, they will now moun, but only as root. In fact after doing this I have to omunt everything as root, including CD-ROM which was done automatically.

Does anyone have an idea of how to get it to work automatically, as they did in fedora core 4?

Cheers

Fish

Hi sorry to ask, but does nobody have an idea?
I wanted to say goodbye to the hat!

I'm having some success with removable DVD-RAM's on SCSI, but can't help with USB.

For the mount as root problem - did the fstab access modes get changed to something other than 644 (rw-r--r--) when you edited the file?
