I have really no idea, but maybe we can find something out. - Is /media empty before you plug in your USB device? - What filesystem is on your USB device? - Instead of logging into KDE login on console (tty?), plug in you USB device and run "gnome-mount -d <devicefiles>". If it works, the problem is probably on KDE's side. If it does not work, it's probably HAL's issue. - Did you change something in HAL?... :-) .fdi files or something like this? -- bye Adalbert
