I just made a huge breakthrough in this bug. Keep in mind, I may have a
different bug than the others since I am using Ubuntu not Xubuntu.
Checking the log files I see:

kern.log
Apr 26 22:01:33 chris-vaio580 kernel: [  178.360607] end_request: I/O error, 
dev fd0, sector 0
Apr 26 22:01:33 chris-vaio580 kernel: [  178.360630] Buffer I/O error on device 
fd0, logical block 0

Apr 26 22:01:59 chris-vaio580 kernel: [  204.384347] end_request: I/O error,

fd0, logical block 0

This was occuring every 15 seconds or so. I have a removable floppy
drive that was not attached because the bay is also used for an optional
second battery. When I boot with the floppy drive in the bay, all my
USB's and discs will mount and operate normally. I  use my second
battery most of the time but may occasionally need the floppy drive so
can this be solved? I believe the floppy drive must be inserted or
removed with the power off if this helps.
