Hello,
I am trying to use a USB memory stick with F9. When I plug it in,
Nautilus shows an unmounted "USB Drive". Double-clicking on causes a
"Unable to mount location - Can't mount file" error. Right-clicking and
selecting "Mount Volume" appears to do nothing.
I can mount it from the shell with "mount /dev/sdb1 /media/abc -t
msdos" (as root).

Any ideas? Worked as expected with F8, though it was a different drive
(which I no longer have, so I can't test it).
