Think I tried that, as well as leaving the USB drive in when I bounced the system to reset the BIOS. USB storage annoys me, half the time it's try to find it, the camera card being a prime example. I'll try it this evening, since we *finally* finished all the taxes last night (MD is nasty: their downloadable pdf forms are encrypted, so not only is it not saveable after you enter data, like the fed forms are, but you cannot use either print to CUPS-pdf, nor can you print to a file, then use ps2pdf....) > > {there are probably hal/udev/inotify games you could do, but I like old > fashioned things.} Hmmm, don't know them. rescan-scsi-bus... no, I don't *think* that will register the USB, and I think I mentioned that lsusb shows me the drive, but I can't identify the driver. Now that I have some time, I'll dig deeper. > > Even when this disclaimer is not here: > I am not a contracting officer. I do not have authority to make or modify > the terms of any contract. I have a very long disclaimer from my late wife at home, along the lines of "this does not reflect the views of my employer, the US government, or even the view out my window (which I don't have)...." mark
