We still have this problem on the school system. On my home sytstem, USB memory sticks work just fine. I've reloaded the ltsp-client software on both systems to be sure they are identical. I've checked everything I can think of on the servers, but can't find any differences.

The symptoms are:
- Plugin a USB stick and it shows on the desktop, but attempting to read or write a file to it results in a gui popup:

    Error reading from file: cannot allocate memory

- The mount point is weird, even root can't access it:

    root@sol:~# cd /media/test3
    root@sol:test3# ls -l
    ls: cannot access CANON_DC: Permission denied
    total 0
    d????????? ? ? ? ? ? CANON_DC

- Mount on the server shows:

    gvfs-fuse-daemon on /home/test3/.gvfs type fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon (rw,nosuid,nodev,user=test3)
    ltspfs on /media/test3/CANON_DC type fuse.ltspfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,user=test3)

Any ideas? What should I investigate for permissions problems on gvfs mounts?
