Hello everyone, I am using an external usb storage device (hard disk). When KDE is started, as soon as I plug the usb device into the system, everything works as expected : kde shows a desktop icon for my device, and eventually asks if I want to open a folder with it. Now, I am using that external usb storage device permanently. This means that I shut down my workstation and boot it up with the device connected. Now, once I log into KDE, the desktop icon for my external disk doesn't show on the desktop. However, the "storage section" (don't know how it's called, this is a french localization) of konqueror shows the device and as soon as I select it, the device gets mounted and the icon appears on the desktop. If I log in (desktop icon not appearing) and then plug in a second usb storage device, the new device appears on the desktop, as well as my first usb storage device. This may just be a kind of 'refresh' issue, but I'd like to know if someone else ran accross this kind of behaviour. btw, I'm running 'kde 3.5.3-0.4.fc5 Fedora-Core' on ... fc5 (obviously :p) Thanks for reading so far, R.
