And I can't find it anywhere in the file system, either. In gnome, on the other hand, it appears a few seconds after I plug it in. Anybody think that this is strange? Any solutions? I googled a little for 'usb kde' and 'mount usb' but couldn't get anything useful out of that otherwise deep information well. More information: I have a /media/Bo folder. In this folder there are four files which just happen to be the first four files that I ever moved into the usb device, in gnome I think. Those files have long since been deleted from the device, and the device reinsrted many times, but they are still there. Thanks Dotan Cohen english-lyrics.com
