[nmglug] ubuntu auto-mounting usb thumbdrives

Hi,

Got an ubuntu install that, as shown by dmesg, has no problem
recognizing usb devices plugged in,
but it doesn't mount auto magically,
I have to i.e,
$> sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /media/usb1 
to access it,

the /etc/fstab of a system that auto mounts usb stuff does not differ
from the non-auto-mounting-one,
so, where in the ever-looking-more-like-xp ubuntu world do I get to
learn how to fix this?

Thank yous

Andres
