I, too, had changed my mountdevusbfs.sh at one point (in fact, for the same reason). However, I don't understand how you managed to fix it? This problem is really bugging me. The "hack" you mention enables gnome-terminal but for some reason my TTYs are still not active. I'm hoping to get it fixed like you have it. Could you post your new mountdevusbfs.sh or tell me how to install a package-maintainer's version? I don't know what package this would be included in.
