Do you have hotplug installed? It should automatically load modules for USB. Do you use 2.6 kernel? It should support nest 2 features. Do you have udev installed? it should automatically create devices for connected hardware. Do you have usbmount installed? It should automatically mount connected USB disks. -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
