This will tell hotplug to load the usb-storage module when that device is discovered. You can manually modprobe usb-storage to see if that helps. I'm not to familiar with suse, but you need to find one of hte mapping files usually under /etc/hotplug or /etc/hotplug/usb and add an entry mapping the vendor/device to the usb-storage driver. I can never remember what all the fields are but something like: usb-storage 0x000f 0x0451 0x6250 0x0 0x0 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x -- Dave ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
Re: RE: LACIE USB disk and SuSE 10.1
Jimmy, The notebook I am trying it with is an IBM X31 which has USB 2.0 as its designation. The drive serial number is 161600882, and is brand new. I do not think it is the drive. Probably some module I forgot to load or something. md -- Jon "maddog" Hall Executive Director Linux International(R) email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 80 Amherst St. Voice: +1.603.672.4557 Amherst, N.H. 03031-3032 U.S.A.

RE: LACIE USB disk and SuSE 10.1
Hello Jon, >>>So the device is more or less seen, but I can not find the proper way to hold my tongue and mount it. I have seen the same sort of problem with a 1Tb drive of LaCie. The issue was we had USB 1.1 port and the drive was USB 2.0. Then, we changed the motherboard for USB 2.0. Then, we also discovered that the firmware was not current. After that all went OK. If I may, Jon, I would talk to my good friends of LaCie in the morning and get back to you. Is there a way of getting the serial number by email so that they can check a few things? Best wishes from Rouen, (World Cup starting in just 15 minutes.) Jimmy ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
LACIE USB disk and SuSE 10.1
Hi folks, It is not often I have a problem, but here one is. I recently bought a LACIE 600 GByte USB 2.0 disk, unwrapped it and plugged it into my SuSE 10.1 distribution. Normally I plug in a USB storage device and it mounts, with a nice little icon that comes up. No such luck. I hear the drive spin up and the heads load, but that is about it. So I do a "dmesg" and I get this out of it: usb 4-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 10 usb 4-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 11 usb 4-1: new device found, idVendor=0451, idProduct=6250 usb 4-1: new device strings: Mfr=2, Product=3, SerialNumber=1 usb 4-1: Product: TUSB6250 Boot Device usb 4-1: Manufacturer: Texas Instruments usb 4-1: SerialNumber: AAB74D460127 usb 4-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice I expected to see something like "/dev/sdX" but that did not come up. I poked around the net, found some information about "ehci_hcd" drivers, etc. and it told me to do a "lsusb": [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> lsusb Bus 003 Device 001: ID : Bus 004 Device 011: ID 0451:6250 Texas Instruments, Inc.
