I cannot use my Toshiba USB HD with Fedora 7. I am quoting here the relevant part of 'demsg': << usb 4-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4 usb 4-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice scsi3 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices usb-storage: device found at 4 usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning usb-storage: device scan complete scsi scan: INQUIRY result too short (5), using 36 scsi 3:0:0:0: CD-ROM Toshiba USB 2.0 CD-ROM 1.15 PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 usb 4-1: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4 usb 4-1: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4 usb 4-1: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4 usb 4-1: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4 usb 4-1: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4 sr2: scsi3-mmc drive: 52x/52x cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray sr 3:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr2 sr 3:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg4 type 5 >> This is the output of 'lsusb': << Bus 004 Device 004: ID 0930:0b06 Toshiba Corp.

But, no device file is generated. And obviously, the automount of USB HD-s is not working at all. -- das http://ddts.randomink.org/ http://ddts.randomink.org/blog/
