.... I am trying to mount some SDHC cards through a USB reader 
(Transcend USB 2.0) with an eye towards using them to create bootable 
drives for a Raspberry Pi B+. When I try to view the drive through 
XFCE's 'flash File Manager' (from top toolbar) it pops up an error 
dialog saying:

mount_msdosfs: can't find or load "msdos_iconv" kernel module
mount_msdosfs: msdos_iconv: operation not permitted.

I am doing this as an ordinary user, something in fstab or amd.conf ? 
TIA for any clues ....
