Hi, 

I have the same problem for the past 2 months or so. I have also been lazy, but
I can not also automount a USB stick. Also, the /media drive is empty. No
mountpoiunt is available there anymore. 

Btw, I noticed when I rebooted into the new kernel yesterday that the HALdaemon
failed to start.

I am on a Dell Precision 650 dual-processor. My laptop (Dell Latitude C840)
does not however have this problem. I have the latest FC4 kernels.

Thanks and best wishes!
