Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: upstart
I have a Rio Forge MP3 player. On my old computer, when you plugged the
Forge into the USB port, the appropriate icons appeared on the desktop.
Unfortunately, that computer was killed by lightning and I recently had
to purchase a new computer.
On the new computer, which also has Feisty installed, when you plug the
Rio Forge into the USB port, nothing happens. The computer knows the
device is plugged in, as evidenced by Hardware Information and lsusb.
However, it doesn't create the appropriate desktop or Computer icons,
nor does it even have a listing in /dev so it could be mounted manually.
All my other USB drives (card reader, flash drive, hard drive) work just
fine.
The only time the Forge will work is if it's plugged in at the beginning
of the boot process. If it's plugged in then, then when you log into
the computer, the appropriate icons are on the desktop, and if you
unplug it then plug it back in again later, the icons are recreated
appropriately, but this only works until the computer is rebooted or
shut off.
Again, the Forge only mounts properly if plugged in during the beginning
of the boot process. Could it be a result of the new init system?
Either way, it seems to be a most inconvenient bug.
