I seem to have lost the ability to automatically mount usb flash
memory sticks on my desktop. When I place a stick into a usb port the
usb drive shows up in the Nautilus viewer and the following is logged
in
/var/log/messages:

This is what dmesg shows:

But /media is empty:

drwxr-xr-x 18 root wheel 24 Sep 23 08:41 ..
Attempts to mount the drive from the nautilus window of my
non-privileged user account fail.
I can however mount the drive manually and Nautilus then sees the
contents:
# mkdir /media/usbkey
# mount -t msdosfs /dev/da0s1 /media/usbkey
# ll /media/usbkey/
total 112

drwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 16384 Jul 5 08:23 xnet241/
How do I get the former 'auto detect and mount' function to work again?
