[opensuse] Cannot mount thumb drive
After installation, I could insert a thumb usb drive and the system would recognize it and respond properly. Now it doesn't, whether or not the drive is inserted at boot or later, and I cannot do a manual mount. I don't see a /dev file either (with 2 sata drives, I think it should be /dev/sdc...) Does anyone know how to get the thumb drive working again? Thank you. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Stupid question - does it work on another computer (regardless of the OS)? -- kai - theperfectreign@yahoo.com www.perfectreign.com || www.4thedadz.com www.filesite.org || www.donutmonster.com wo ist der ort für den ehrlichsten kuss ich weiss, dass ich ihn für uns finden muss... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
Yes, I should have said that the thumb drive works on my WinXP system on the same computer. I also installed SuSE 10.2 on another computer (PIII, 256 Mb; installation was smooth, unlike my current HP Pavilion a1520n), and the thumb drive worked fine. I did say that, initially, I had no problems with the thumb drive. Something changed. I don't know if it was a configuration file (unlikely), a deleted rpm, an added rpm, a Yast update, or something else. I will try to 'update' (overwrite) my installation, but I saw a message for a similar situation that was unsuccessful. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I have a similar problem, my drive does work on other computers (XP) and I have used it on my Suse machine, not sure if it slow to find it, going to do some more checks. Mike -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
