Confusion reigns. Both the bugzillas above are about kernel-2.6.22-27
and Karl is complaining about kernel-2.6.22-42.

My memory stick automounts on the latter so there must be a presumption
that the problem lies in the hardware used assuming no odd software
installations of udev are involved. 

It is hard to believe that sticking the memory stick into the port could
be done incorrectly, but who knows.
