HAL fails to mount my external hard drive [SOLVED]

Hey all,

I recently started having trouble with HAL automounting my external. I just did a pac -Syu today, and it stopped working. I get this error message when I plug it in:

Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.86" (uid=1000 pid=7449 comm="exo-mount) interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume" member="Mount" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="org.freedesktop.Hal" (uid=0 pid=7389 comm="/usr/sbin/hald)).

Dmesg returns this output:

usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 8
usb 1-1: configuration #2 chosen from 1 choice
scsi7 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices

Any suggestions?

*smacks head* I apologize.  I was lazy.
