Public bug reported:
System Version: Ubuntu 8.10
I plugged my USB flash drive into Ubuntu and it won't mount. I have done
a "sudo fdisk -l" command:
mich...@sokar:~$ sudo fdisk -l

Well that does seem to be a problem because I don't see the flash drive
being listed. From the System Administration Log:

OK - looks like it knows that the device exists, electrically speaking,
but it has a problem recognizing how to communicate with it. The drive
works fine on my Windows PC, and all my other flash drives work fine
with Ubuntu... just not this one. It is formatted as FAT32.
