Any useful output if you will try to use 'gnome-mount' directly
from a command prompt? That's what you trying to do by double
clicking but not much to see then. Pay attention to what
'gnome-mount --help' has to say.
Do I need to file both of these problems under hal or the kernel or
indeed, some other package?
It appears from what you write that kernel is doing its job. What
precisely fails is not obvious from your description. I guess that
you can always complain here about 'gnome-mount'. Likely attach
an 'lshal' output to your report.
