Answer to Brian Murray:

what does the command 'id' return?
-------------------------------------------------
auke@desktop:~$ id
uid=1000(auke) gid=1000(auke) groups=4(adm),20(dialout),24(cdrom),25(floppy),29(audio),30(dip),44(video),46(plugdev),109(lpadmin),111(scanner),113(admin),1000(auke)

What is /media/usbdisk (notice without the -1)?
----------------------------------------------------------------
This is a 260GB USB harddisk. It works correctly. It has one ext3 partition.

The problematic device is a USB stick which has one vfat partition.
