no partitions on Western Digital My Book

When I plug in a Western Digital My Book, the partitions are detected by
the kernel, but hal doesn't read them. This means that the drive
doesn't get automounted. One thing that I noticed is that it is two
devices, the actual storage device and an SES device (the enclosure).
I've included the dmesg and lshal ouput. If there's any other info that
would help, please let me know.
The dmesg output:
