Almost offtopic Mike, I don't have any audio ports in that front panel
hub.

What I did find was the sd_mod wasn't, because it was builtin.
Rebuilding a
new kernel with sd_mod as a module, and while it set it up as sde (I
have NDI
where abcd went), its now mounted and readable.

Is that considered a kernal bug?  Damnifiknow.


Is the device being mounted by HAL? If so, check /etc/fstab. If the device appears there, that may be your problem. Try commenting it out.
