Problem: a machine in our control room would no longer automatically mount removable media like thumb drives or external USB drives. this used to work, but hadn't been tested since upgrading to FC9.
Solution: FC9 changed the handling of external devices through the use of gvfs and PolicyKit. it turns out that my upgrade process did not install pam_mount which is now required for non-root users to automount external drives. installing this via yum fixed the problem.
