Hi, Sorry, no idea, it's not a complicated script at all... Was your Skype client running? Could you please post the log of the error? Just copy paste what's in the terminal from the line where you run the command. If it is very long, please use a pastebin style site, and just post the link. What version of Ubuntu are you running? Please can you also post the results from these commands python --version skype --version python -cimport Skype4Py;print Skype4Py.__version__ Thanks Matt -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

[ubuntu-uk] USB Pen Drive Problem
Hi I use a 32Gb USB pen drive for daily backups of my main PC (#1). Each time I plug it into PC #1 it takes only seconds to mount. However, if I plug it into my other PC (#2) it can take 10-15 minutes to mount. If I subsequently write data to the drive from PC #2 it will then also take 10-15 minutes to mount next time I plug it into PC #1. I've formatted the drive as ext3, ext4 and fat32 - makes no difference. Does anybody have any ideas what is going on and whether there is anything I can do to speed things up? On both my PCs I'm running 11.10 with Xfce, formatted as ext4. Thanks Nige -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Are you correctly ejecting it when you remove it, rather than just pulling it out. Otherwise run dmesg in a terminal then plug it in and run dmesg in a terminal and see if there is anything interesting added. Also look in syslog and see if anything there.
