More developments: I don't know what was in the latest sets of updates, but not only did I lose the ability to make use of my external HD, but after discovering that problem, I restarted my computer and I was not able to get my desktop up. Instead I got the message "Could not update ICEauthority file /home/me/.ICEauthority". Nothing recommended on the boards was successful. Finally, I tried to reinstall Nautilus. That was unsuccessful and I was forced to reinstall 10.04, which did not install correctly and I could not get my mouse to work. Finally rolled everything back and installed 9.04. 10.04 is useless. Everything has fallen apart since I got it.
