I found that a lock button on the device was on but it is still not
working after unlocking it:
dmesg output is:
usb 2-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5
usb 2-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
scsi7 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices

and mtab is
/dev/sdc1 /media/disk vfat
rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal,shortname=lower,uid=500 0 0
so it should be writable....
But when I look into proprties (see attached jpeg file) I see that no
choice for file access
Any hint???
