Public bug reported:
Hi.
I updated my Ubuntu today, from kernel 2.6.24-16-generic to the latest
2.6.24-21-generic. Now i can no longer auto-mount USB-sticks (thumb
drives) by connecting them to an external 4-port USB hub.
When i connect the USB-stick directly to a MoBo USB port, it auto-mounts
fine.
When plugged into the hub and i do a "lsusb", the stick does NOT show
up, however immediately after issuing that command the stick will auto-
mount (and show up correctly when i do the "lsusb" a second time)!
Tried with varying amounts of time between inserting the stick and
issuing the command to see if it will eventually mount after some time,
but up to 14 minutes no reaction at all, and after issuing "lsusb" it
immediately mounts.
Another user on Ubuntu-forums experienced the identical problem on a
laptop, mine is a desktop.
Machine: Asus K8N4-E SE, AMD Sempron 2800+, 2x1 GB Kingston RAM, Nvidia
graphics. USB devices connected: Printer HP all-in-one, mouse Logitech,
external memory card reader, IrDA dongle, 4-port hub. All work fine
except for any device that will be connected to the hub (tested several
USB-sticks) except when doing "lsusb".
Ubuntu-version: 8.04.1 Hardy Heron
Kernel: 2.6.24-21-generic 32 bit
if you need further information, please explain to me how i can obtain
it as i am still quite a newbie to Linux.
Kind regards.....
Thanh
