Yes! This worked. I think LXDE was acting appropriately given that the
mmc card was formated ext3 instead

I tried this as non-root and it mounted the mmc at /mount/mmcblk0p1.
However, it was still owned by root and there were no write permissions
for other users. When I tried to copy a file to it as non-root i
I did try to put an entry in fstab with a user option but it did not
work. I created a directory /mnt/mmc and tried to mount /dev/mmcblk0p1
as ext3 with user option. Nothing changed. Still mounted
at /media/ with root owner. Could not write to it as non-root
user.
Thanks
