Re: usb 2



Thanks Kevin, but these two snippets were from the same machine, only with a different usb drive - an old one that works, and a new one that doesn't.

cheers

This would seem to be the 'magic' that did it. Some program runs the
'mount -t vfat ...' command after the device is found.

It would seem to be the 'usbmount' program that is missing.
if you do 'dpkg --get-selections usbmount' to see if its installed. Also
for info do:
apt-cache show usbmount
for the description.
Hope this helps,
Kev
