I'm not an expert, but here are some issues to address: 1) You mention an MP3 player. You therefore have more than one USB device. Depending on the order in which you plug them in and unplug them, they will be assigned to different scsi device IDs, _unless_ you install and configure special software. 2) What you need to do depends on which kernel you are running. Different steps for 2.4 and 2.6 kernels. 3) You may get lucky and stumble into a working arrangement in just a few steps, but now that you have two usb devices, I suggest you step back and investigate kernel 2.6, and udev. udev _must_ be configured in order to achieve benefits. As installed, it simply reimplements status quo ante device handling policy. Sorry for the somewhat scary message, but I wasted a lot of time on 3 cameras, 5 flash memories, and a flatbed scanner before I broke down and RTFM.
