The drive had a label of "SEAGATE". I changed it, just to be certain,

Setting /etc/mtools.conf and using mlabel as Tim and Matthew
suggested, worked fine.
Upon unplugging and replugging, however,I had the same results. No
desktop icon, no mount.
How are your "removable drives and media" preferences set? That's its
title in Gnome, KDE will probably have something similar. I can't
remember whether you use one of them.
I am using Gnome:
Removable Drive and Media Preferences are set to allow the following for
"Removable Storage"
Mount removable drives when hot-plugged
Mount removable media when inserted
Browse removable media when inserted
"Blank CD and DVD Disks"
{nothing selected]

Whatever is going on with this Seagate USB drive is NOT new with F7.
I hooked it up to an FC6 machine and had the same results, no desktop
icon, no mount.
The system knows about the device, however.

It still sounds like a udev/hal issue.
I've got
idVendor 0x0bc2 Seagate RSS LLC
idProduct 0x0502
Now I guess it means trying figure out how to automate the mount, etc.
Tips, starting points, howtos, anyone?
