Yes, I can mount the card reader manually.

I have since discovered that pmount, which is used by 
gnome-volume-manager, is only executable for the group plugdev.  Once I 
made it executable for all, most hotpluggable devices mounted immediately.

Unfortunately, the error message was not in the syslog, but in the file 
that captures error messages from GUI programs.  Thats why I overlooked 
an otherwise fairly clear messages.
