That I know, and it is unlocked.  And it was an old message from you 
almost a year ago about simple-mtpfs.

A little more digging and it seems that gnome has this automated. Xfce 
seems not to have it.  Perhaps I need to reboot or somehow restart 
Xfce?  I changed the automount options, and no change.  USB sticks are 
not automounting; this is why I suspect a reboot or an Xfce restart is 
needed?
