I have a HP Pavilion s7605.fr computer with SuSE 10.2. All works fine except for the usb device who does not mount even when I am logged as root. There is no activity in /var/log/messages when the usb device is plugged in. The last 10 lines of the messages file, after the usb device was plugged in: Apr 10 18:10:11 HPAthlon gconfd (bogdan-4627): Resolved address "xml:readonly:/etc/opt/gnome/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory" to a read-only configuration source at position 0 Apr 10 18:10:11 HPAthlon gconfd (bogdan-4627): Resolved address "xml:readwrite:/home/bogdan/.gconf" to a writable configuration source at position 1 Apr 10 18:10:11 HPAthlon gconfd (bogdan-4627): Resolved address "xml:readonly:/etc/opt/gnome/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults" to a read-only configuration source at position 2 Apr 10 18:10:11 HPAthlon gconfd (bogdan-4627): Resolved address "xml:readonly:/etc/opt/gnome/gconf/gconf.xml.schemas" to a read-only configuration source at position 3 Apr 10 18:10:28 HPAthlon zmd: Daemon (WARN): Not starting remote web server Apr 10 18:10:41 HPAthlon gconfd (bogdan-4627): GConf server is not in use, shutting down.
