Start checking your kernel logs, (/var/log/syslog or /var/log/kern.log, depends how your syslogd/sysklogd is configured) when you attach a removable storage (tail -f yourlogfile). You should see info about USB, SCSI, SD (storage device), hald and probably gnome-keyring-daemon. On Fedora (and BSD?) i think PolicyKit should be involved too, but I've no details (Debian here)... -- Andrea _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
