Auto mounting in Ubuntu 12.10

[Peter Hillier-Brook]

Hello All,

Since upgrading Ubuntu to 12.10 I no longer have access to USB *AND* 
internal disks that were auto mounted in earlier releases. This problem 
only occurs with Unity-based systems: Kubuntu works fine, as does 
Lubuntu. Obviously I can mount them as root, but the tedium of finding 
the appropriate UUID is less than desirable.

Does anyone know of a solution to this issue, please?
