Update: Last night I thought I had found a way to get around the problem mounting USB hard drives, and went one step further. I took one of my 500GB drives and formatted it ext3. I then found it would mount on each of my 3 systems, but only if it was plugged in prior to powering on. That was acceptable, although not how things used to work. This morning I got up and thought I would move some files to the newly formatted 500GB ext3 drive, but found it would not mount on any of my systems. Below is dmesg output from this system: (Looking in /dev there is no entry for sdc or sdc1, nothing in /media, and GParted doesn't display the drive even if refreshed numerous times) To make matters even much worse, the ntfs drive which I was able to mount and unmount numerous times last night and had copied a number of files to, now will no longer mount on any of my systems, and displays nothing at all in dmesg when I try. PLEASE NOTE: I'm running 9.04 stable, NOT an alpha or beta.
