Hi, thank you for your help,

I reinstalled the "pmount", "gnome-volume-manager" and 
"gnome-desktop-environement" packages. Now I have:
ls -l /usr/bin/pmount
-rwsr-xr--  1 root plugdev 22K 2004-12-16 19:24 /usr/bin/pmount*

But the icon of my stick is still not appearing when I plug it in. 
However I can pmount it manually with:
pmount /dev/gyp-cl-usb /stick
with the following warning:
Warning: device /dev/gyp-cl-usb is already handled by /etc/fstab, 
supplied label is ignored

The devices nodes are well created and the permissions are the following:
ls -l /dev/gyp*
brw-rw----  1 root hal  8, 0 2004-12-28 15:35 /dev/gyp-cl-sda
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   10 2004-12-28 15:35 /dev/gyp-cl-usb -> gyp-cl-sda

Am I missing something? Which logs can I check to see what's wrong with 
pmount? Is it a problem of the gnome-volume-manager?
