I left out part of this (that I did after sending the message). Apparently the problem isn't so much the flash drive as what happens when the icon on the gnome desktop doesn't go away - it refuses to be removed. I can manually mount the flash drive to its proper mount point, and access it through the icon, but when I unmount it, the icon doesn't go away, and after that, until/unless I manually remount the drive again, the icon doesn't work (and won't unmount - duh!). Now I'm not sure if this is a gnome issue or a CentOS issue. If I log out and log back in, the icon still doesn't go away (implicating the OS), but when I reboot, all is well again, for a while.... Thanks. PS: John, the drive was not actually mounted when this happened, so a dd would not work, either - it didn't even matter if the drive was plugged in or not - the icon was there and unusable/misbehavin'.
yes, well, the finger's pointing in an entirely different direction now:-) Right at the man with the nose in the corner of the garden.
Do you have a problem in KDE? If you have a problem in KDE, does this command (as root) help? chmod -x /usr/bin/autorun (don't forget chmod +x /usr/bin/autorun later) Do you have a problem in runlevel 3, with no GUI at all. -- Cheers John -- spambait 1aaaaaaa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Z1aaaaaaa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Please do not reply off-list _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
