After the last Kernel update to 5.5.11-200.fc31.x86_64, usb flash drives would no longer mount.
They work fine if I reboot to kernel 5.5.10-200.fc31.x86_64 x86_64.
sudo fdisk -l shows that the drives are being detected when plugged in, but they don’t show up in either Nautilus or Caja.
What’s the related output of dmesg and/or journalctl?
Can you mount them with mount in terminal (better attempt read-only)?
dmesg yields:

[rich@RichLap-L ~]$ sudo mount /dev/sdb /home/rich/mount/USB1
Swipe your finger across the fingerprint reader
FUSE exfat 1.3.0
[rich@RichLap-L ~]$
And the thumb drive is now successfully mounted.
mount -o ro # :) ?
So, this is simple a GUI issue, good. chant: Go Kernel, go!
Can you provide the full line output of the journalctl logs? There might be something in there saying what exactly failed. Looks like the dbus notification to the apps failed…
