After understanding the above, you are probably looking at a udev/hald rules
question.
please elaborate
If /etc/fstab is not effecting the mount,
and
If the only user logged into the system is the user trying to read/write the
USB device,
and
If the /etc/group file is not munged up for the user, i.e., the user is in
either a group named the same as the user or another normal (not root) group,
and
If the physical write protect tab is not set to write protect (the messages
indicated it was not),
Then:
the normal F8 udev/hald rules should mount the [v]fat file system from the
device as either
drwxr-xr-x # user usergroup dirsize 1970-01-01 time /media/KINGSTON
or
drwx------ # user usergroup dirsize 1970-01-01 time /media/KINGSTON
So the only other thing left to look at AFAIK is the udev/hald rules.
I suppose there is also an interaction with one of the gnome/kde hald watching
things to take into account, but those should only cause the mount to occur...
not set permissions AFAIK.
elaborate enough?
