Cannot mount flash drives


Hiya! It just started today, but I can't mount my Sansa, which is in MSC mode, or any other flash drives. SpaceFM detects them, but when I try to mount them, it throws up this error:

Code:
udevil: denied 90: option 'fmask=0133' is not an allowed option
Is anyone else having this problem and is there an easy fix for it?

*UPDATE* One of my deviantART and Skype buds helped me fix it. Just had to edit /etc/udevil/udevil.conf, and remove every instance of fmask=0133, which gave me back USB device access.

My Iriver E150 is set to MFT(UMS) mode and mounts flawlessly.

When you run dmesg in a terminal, is the device detected?

Had the same problem here (in ArchBang). This solution worked for me. Thank you! Much appreciated.
