[SOLVED] Cannot mount USB drive.

Hi all,
For some reason, I cannot mount USB drives on my new Slackware installation. I am new to Slack, so please bear with me.

The error message in XFCE is as follows:

Code:

Rejected send message, 
1 matched rules; type="method_call", 
sender=":1.68" (uid=1000 pid=3353 
comm="exo-mount) 
interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume" 
member="Mount" error name="(unset)" 
requested_reply=0 
destination="org.freedesktop.Hal" 
(uid=0 pid=1907 comm="/usr/sbin/hald)).

If any light could be shed it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jack Hunt
