USB Stick doesn't mount

I have the problem on my computer in KDE. The mounting of an USB-Stick doesn't work and /var/log/messages shows: Oct 11 11:41:40 linux kernel: usb 5-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 10 Oct 11 11:41:40 linux kernel: hub 5-2:1.0: USB hub found Oct 11 11:41:40 linux kernel: hub 5-2:1.0: 1 port detected Oct 11 11:41:41 linux kernel: usb 5-2.1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 11 Oct 11 11:41:41 linux kernel: scsi6 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices Oct 11 11:41:41 linux kernel: usb-storage: device found at 11 Oct 11 11:41:41 linux kernel: usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: Vendor: Prolific Model: USB Flash Disk Rev: PROL Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 00 Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: SCSI device sdb: 512000 512-byte hdwr sectors (262 MB) Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: sdb: Write Protect is off Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: sdb: Mode Sense: 00 06 00 00 Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: sdb: assuming drive cache: write through Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: SCSI device sdb: 512000 512-byte hdwr sectors (262 MB) Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: sdb: Write Protect is off Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: sdb: Mode Sense: 00 06 00 00 Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: sdb: assuming drive cache: write through Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: sdb: sdb1 Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: Attached scsi removable disk sdb at scsi6, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: Attached scsi generic sg1 at scsi6, channel 0, id 0, lun 0, type 0 Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: usb-storage: device scan complete Oct 11 11:41:46 linux hal-subfs-mount[12288]: SYMLINKS:: disk/by-id/usb-Prolific_Technology_Inc._USB_Mass_Storage_Device disk/by-path/usb-ProlificTechnologyInc-USBMassStorageDevice:0:0:0 Oct 11 11:41:46 linux hal-subfs-mount[12288]: MOUNT_POINT:: /media/usbdisk Oct 11 11:41:46 linux hal-subfs-mount[12288]: MOUNTPOINT:: /media/usbdisk Oct 11 11:41:46 linux hal-subfs-mount[12288]: Collected mount options and Called(0) /bin/mount -t subfs -o fs=ext2,sync,nosuid,nodev,exec /dev/sdb "/media/usbdisk" Oct 11 11:41:46 linux udevd[2477]: get_netlink_msg: no ACTION in payload found, skip event 'mount' Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: EXT2-fs warning: mounting unchecked fs, running e2fsck is recommended Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: EXT2-fs error (device sdb): ext2_check_page: bad entry in directory #2: unaligned directory entry - offset=0, inode=3405957889, rec_len=51971, name_len=4 Oct 11 11:41:46 linux hal-subfs-mount[12303]: SYMLINKS:: disk/by-id/usb-Prolific_Technology_Inc._USB_Mass_Storage_Device disk/by-path/usb-ProlificTechnologyInc-USBMassStorageDevice:0:0:0 Oct 11 11:41:46 linux hal-subfs-mount[12303]: MOUNT_POINT:: /media/usbdisk_1 Oct 11 11:41:46 linux hal-subfs-mount[12303]: MOUNTPOINT:: /media/usbdisk_1 Oct 11 11:41:46 linux hal-subfs-mount[12303]: Collected mount options and Called(0) /bin/mount -t subfs -o fs=floppyfss,sync,procuid,nosuid,nodev,exec,utf8=true /dev/sdb1 "/media/usbdisk_1" Oct 11 11:41:46 linux submountd: mount failure, Device or resource busy Oct 11 11:41:46 linux kernel: subfs: unsuccessful attempt to mount media (256) Oct 11 11:40:38 linux submountd: mount failure, Device or resource busy Oct 11 11:40:38 linux kernel: subfs: unsuccessful attempt to mount media (256) Please help.

What is the filesystem on the usb-stick? ext2 or fat/vfat? please attach the output of lshal (use: 'lshal > /tmp/lshal_log')
Created attachment 53797 [details] output of lshal The filesystem on disk is vfat.
