USB memory keys support in linux

I recently bought a Kingston USB memory key to take files to and from work. I currently have FreeBSD running on my desktop at home, but it doesn't seem to support the memory key, so I'm thinking of going back to linux (that's not the only reason - I like FreeBSD, I'm thinking of turning my server into a FreeBSD box.) I was wondering: what's the support for USB memory keys in linux like these days? Has anyone used a Kingston USB memory stick successfully in linux?
