Ok.

Start checking your kernel logs, (/var/log/syslog or
/var/log/kern.log, depends how your syslogd/sysklogd is configured)
when you attach a removable storage (tail -f yourlogfile).

You should see info about USB, SCSI, SD (storage device), hald and
probably gnome-keyring-daemon. On Fedora (and BSD?) i think PolicyKit
should be involved too, but I've no details (Debian here)...
