That's weird. Give us the output of "mount" and "dmesg|grep -i sdc"

Yep, sure. As soon as I plug my USB flash key (or my camera) it gets 
detected by blkid without needing to make sorcery nor summoning 
oddfellows.

stt008:~# df |grep sdc
/dev/sdc1              7909376       224   7909152   1% /media/NIKON D80

stt008:~# blkid | grep sdc || echo no found
/dev/sdc1: LABEL="NIKON D80" UUID="0000-0000" TYPE="vfat" 

And this is from and old lenny.
