(Get the code!)
I use Xubuntu 10.04 with the latest (up to 18:00 25.03.2010 Moscow time) updates installed.
If automatic login is turned on, usb devices do not get automounted when plugged in.
Steps to produce this issue:
-use latest xubuntu LL beta
-turn on automatic login (I enabled it in the installation dialog)
-plug any usb flash stick or external HDD
If you are autologin-ed, you can log off, then log in as the same user and everything goes normal then.
If you are autologin-ed and plug a usb stick in, you may execute "gksu thunar &" and discover that root can see it, mount it, etc. But thunar without root privileges can not see the stick.
I tested this issue with 2 usb sticks and one external HDD.
