In the meantime - for those who do not know and need an external drive
while testing karmic - you can mount your drive by hand:

sudo -s
mkdir /media/volumename
mount /dev/sdb1 /media/volumename

where /dev/sdb1 is replaced by your partition, and volumename is a
directory of your choice.

To see what partitions are on a device, you can do tail -f
/var/log/messages and *then* connect the drive. In the log you will see
information on the drive itself including a list of partitions. Then you
can terminate tail -f by hitting ctrl+c.
