There are quite a few known issues with Feisty and mounting USB storage at the moment. It's worth checking the output of the command fdisk -l (not run as sudo) after you have plugged in the device. If there is output then you will have all the info you need to mount it. for example: `fdisk -l` Disk /dev/xxx: 129 MB, 129892352 bytes 16 heads, 16 sectors/track, 991 cylinders Units = cylinders of 256 * 512 = 131072 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/xxxx * 1 990 126703+ 6 FAT16 if you get something like that you can manually mount it using `pmount /dev/xxxx` changing xxxx for the name of the device that the output of `fdisk -l` gave. pmount will mount arbitrary hotpluggable devices as normal user if it is successful you should find the device is mounted to the location: /meida/xxxx to unmount the device use pumount /dev/xxxx - Michael -- /\/\ichael [ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ] \/\/ood [ http://michaelwood.me.uk ] -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
