Are you logging in as root on the other machines, Dave? I found my machine at one point refused to allow me to access an SD card until as root I gave my ordinary account the necessary permissions. I think it must be something to do with the way the Xandros system is set up, because I didn't have it when I switched to Ubuntu.The Xandros system behaved differently depending on whether I had it set to toddler mode (no password needed, it just logs you straight in) or a more secure password protected setup.

On my own Asus, I can plug in an SSD card or USB stick and it is immediately recognised and accessible. However, I have encountered two other identical machines which, whenever an SSD card or USB stick is plugged in, refuse to open them, returning an error message saying. "You do not have enough permissions to read /home/user/Disk".

Neither machine has been modified or had its settings changed since purchase, so I can't figure out why they are behaving differently to my own machine.

Can anyone cast any light on the mystery, or give me an idea how it can be fixed?

Dave
