I bought one of those - USB 3.0 - from amazon.com 11/22/10 and sent it back the next day. Here's why: 1. It was randomly recognized when I plugged it into my router's USB port. Now you see it.. now you don't... 2. Same thing with the laptop running Microsoft Windows Vista..! Except that it was not random this time.. Vista saw it once and after that it disappeared. 3. It was never recognized by debian lenny. 4. I would have started researching & looked for an explanation and a possible fix but then I noticed that it was clucking at me every few seconds, like it wanted to be fed or something... 5. Amazon do have a decent return policy & I can only take so much aggravation these days. Hope you have better luck with yours. cj -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
