my poblems with nautilus and the disk mounter panel applet are
slightly different after the latest gnome-vfs2 update.. but there are
still problems with every single usb storage device that i have
available to test.

1) usb cf card reader is detected...but with gnome-volume-manager set
to automatically mount, nautilus doesn't catch that the card is
actually mounted already and only lists "mount device" in the context
menu even though its already mounted. I have to manually umount the
device in a terminal. With the card removed from the reader the icon
is still present...even though no fstab or /media entry exists at that
point.

2) usb harddisk partitioned with a single vfat partition... when the
device is plugged in nautilus sees the device and in icon is
added..but when the the device is removed from the system nautilus
does not remove the icon...even though the actually mountpoint and
fstab entry are correctly removed.

3)usb keychain drive, icon appears on insertion but like the cf reader
doesn't seem to notice that gnome-volume-manager is mounting it.. and
on device removal the icon is still present.

4)ipod attach seems to be a udev error which i'll file as a new bug.
No /media nor fstab entry is created. What's really strange is. I can
get an icon in nautilus for the device..but since there is no fstab
entry nautilus just throws an error when "mount volume" is attempted
here's the log except for my ipod
