Bug Description

Binary package hint: thunar

In Xubuntu 10.04 I cannot see my external harddisks nor usb stick attached to the computer in Thunar. If I run Thunar with sudo I see them, but not as user. This worked fine before upgrading. I have the same behavior on 3 machines. dmesg reports the devices so it seems to be a thunar or some thunar library bug. If I log out and in again I see the usb devices...

Please advice what debug info you want me to supply
