        Ok now check that your user is in the 'plugdev' group:
        Code:
        id <username>
        just replace the <username> with your login name - let me know if you can see the plugdev group listed.

        Can you manually mount the drive:
        Code:
        sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/
        Have a look in /mnt/ - you should see the contents of your pen-drive.
