Do you see the device in lsusb ? If not, don't blame udev . Do you see
its partitions in /proc/partitions ?
You also mentioned a frontconnector. At least in some systems that
connector is bad. In some systems it is unmasked, and therefore has
lower speed. In a few other systems (like some VIA systems we have at
work) it it a reboot swtich - you plug anything to the USB, and the
system reboots.
