This is not a mounting problem — hal or dbus isn't even creating a block
device in /dev.
I have an external 2.5" drive in a USB powered and connected enclosure. It
functions fine in:
*Win XP
*Ubuntu 8.04 eee (gnome)
*Ubuntu 8.10 (gnome)
*Kubuntu 8.10 (KDE 4)
No device is created with Kubuntu 8.04 on 3 separate machines (eliminating the
possibility that it is related to a configuration problem with a particular
computer).
dmesg reports:
[2169494.590056] usb 5-6.3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and
address 85

I tried a different, but similar drive that I borrowed from someone for the
test, and the problem occurs with that drive as well.
I always thought that this function was handled by stuff that wasn't X11 or
desktop environment related. So I am trying to figure out if I can correct
this.
I prefer KDE and I am not ready to abandon KDE 3 in favor of KDE 4.
