What "device screen" do you mean? And where are you looking "on the |
| 41 |
computer"? When I insert a usb stick, there's a lot of output in |
| 42 |
/var/log/messages about the stick and the partition on it. Then I use |
| 43 |
"mount /media/usbstick" to mount it according to the appropriate entry |
| 44 |
in my /etc/fstab. Speaking of which, what's your /etc/fstab look like? |
| 45 |
If you use "tail -f /var/log/messages" and then plug the device in, does |
| 46 |
it see that it's connected? |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
I suspect you're talking about auto mounting, such as KDE or Gnome does; |
| 49 |
can you manually mount them? If not, then I doubt auto mounting will |
| 50 |
either. |
