I have 2 kinds of USB flash drive. One is Sandisk 2 GigaByte and the other is PixelView 512 MB. None of these disks are mounted on my Ubunty Gutsy. I tried every USB port in my laptop and PC. Still won't work. The error messages was :
vfat/mount_
options
** (gnome-mount:1378): DEBUG: read default option 'usefree' from gconf strlist key /system/storage/default_options/vfat/mount_options
** (gnome-mount:1378): DEBUG: Mounting /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_E0FD_8510 with mount_point='DAN LENSKI', fstype='', num_options=6

** (gnome-mount:1378): WARNING **: Mount failed for /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_E0FD_8510
org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume.UnknownFailure : mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdh2, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so
The weird thing is, if i try to mount it as a root in command line, it works. But that was too tedious. I don't want to type mount command everytime i plug my drive. After doing some search i found the fix
here. It is a bug in gnome-mount and we simply just remove 'use-free' option in gconf-editor.
