Comment 5 for bug 83627

The issue is apparently still valid for all edgy users (unless they use the unofficial flomertens repo).
An easy fix can be found on the following page:

This is just in case you dont want to upgrade to feisty just to be able to mount your stuff like debian people did for years...
