Is there a way to debug what's going wrong?


I wonder why nobody replies...

This is probably an OS problem (automount failure) - what OS are you
running?
Or it could be some hal rule that got installed by another package
that prevents automounting. I've seen that happen with the gparted
package in some distros for example.

Can it be some problem with NetworkManager?

I'm getting this in the system logs when I attach something:

Looks rather odd to me. Which distro are you using ?
Does disabling nm help ?

NM shouldn't actually touch anything that's not a network device, even
though it will log the insert. So it'll show up here but NM will just
ignore it unless it has HAL network device properties.
