Access to USB storage in Lenny, kernel 2.6.18, with Xfce.

[PETER EASTHOPE <peasthope@shaw.ca>]

Folk,

Seems that the default configuration for USB storage in 
this system is rwx for root and r__ for users.  Can a trivial 
setting in /etc/udev/udev.conf or elsewhere give users rwx?

Numerous earlier messages discuss this problem but refer 
to earlier releases and kernels.

This default state seems odd at best.  Almost all users 
will install a system and expect USB storage to work.  
These snags must be removed before consumers will use 
Debian.

Thanks,               ... Peter E.
