There's a great article about it in the Gentoo forums. I'm having a hard time getting mine to cooperate, but I think may be the drive itself.

It's how I got my digital camera to cooperate under Linux. Be nice though if I could get my keydrive to work though.
Be advised though it may be slightly different for whatever distro you're running, but it's what I used to get it cooperating for me. I also run Gentoo though, so that's part of it.

First create a mount point for the drive. I made on one /mnt/usbkey.
then the command was:
mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbkey
