I can't remember what I did to 'fix' this one, but I managed to find a work-around. I think dpkg-reconfigure may have been involved, but could be wrong. The other thing may be down to groups memberships: plugdev springs to mind. > Does this only happen when booting "live" from the CD, or will I have the > same problem after installing kubuntu on my hard drive?? > Because this makes ubuntu totally useless. FWIW, I have desktop icons (at the moment) on my gutsy desktop: so long as I remember to mount stuff in /media/ (I really don't like that, I tend to mount things elsewhere, historically, now I mount in /media, and symlink out) I think it's a bit harsh to say "useless", but I really don't think bug-reports are the best place for flame-wars... -- feisty beta fails to mount hard drives https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/98751 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a bug contact for kdelibs in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
