New Kernel, No USB Flash automount
Submitted by LokiOfBorg on Tue, 01/09/2007 - 21:32.Howdy all
I have just compiled the 2.6.19.1 kernel source from kernel.org, however I am having problems with USB devices not being recognised.
If I bootup with my USB flash drive plugged in, I can see it in the media manager, and read/write to it.
