On a fresh and up-to-date kubuntu breezy, a iomega usbkey fails to automatically mount (nothing in /media and no usb disk icon on the desktop). All other keys I've tried so far worked well though.
This is not a low level problem since the /dev/sda1 device was automatically created at plug time and as was able to mount it manually with::
$ mkdir clef_de_pierre
$ sudo mount -t auto -o user /dev/sda1 clef_de_pierre/
and successfully umount it with::
$ sudo umount clef_de_pierre
Some more details::
$ id hal
uid=111(hal) gid=111(hal) groupes=111(hal),24(cdrom),25(floppy),46(plugdev)
$ uname -a

Additional info added as attachement (dmesg, lshal and lsusb -v outputs).
