Laptop: Dell Inspiron 700M
I was using Knoppix 3.8 with no problems (except for the known WiFi problem).
I downloaded 4.0.2, DVD and CD, and now when I plug my cruzer mini flash drive into my USB port, no icon is generated onto my desktop. When I try to manually map to where it was before (/mnt/usb1) it doesn't exist. It's as if hotplug no longer works for me in 4.0.2.
I have shut my laptop off, plugged my mini cruzer into the USB port, and re-loaded Knoppix 4.0.2 with no luck.
I have tested this with the DVD and the CD of Knoppix 4.0.2 and both have the same problem. I downloaded the DVD from the Greece mirror and the CD from the Purdue mirror.
When I put my 3.8 CD back into my laptop after all of this testing with 4.0.2, my USB recognizes my cruzer mini flash drive just fine, even when I plug it in at the Knoppix desktop.
I have searched as far as I can and cannot find a solution to my problem. I am a Knoppix newbie and I think I'm doing something wrong, but I don't know what.
Thanks for your help.
