Yes, revdep-rebuild is done and all daemons and KDE are restarted (reboot).
I can see in dmesg that the device is being recognized:

usb-storage: device found at 38
usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning
  Vendor: Pretec    Model: 01GB              Rev: 2.00

I can manually mount sdd1 but thats not really what I want.
