Looks like this bug: #432103: hal: Gives unknown mount option "flush" when mounting an USB stick (vfat) It seems that this will be fixed when a new kernel (>= 2.6.19) comes to testing. If you do not want to wait for that then you can try one of the two patches/workarounds mentioned in the BTS. I can confirm that KDE's mounting of vfat USB sticks works without problems for kernel 2.6.21 on Sid with hal 0.5.9.1-2. -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
