[Bug 297338] [NEW] Sugar does not see/mount USB Flash drive

[mungewell]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: sugar

When inserted a USB Flash key is not seen by Sugar/Sugar-Emulator (it
should show up the bottom bar of Journal, see
http://en.flossmanuals.net/Sugar/BackingUp), instead the USB Flash drive
is mounted by the underlying OS.

At a (wild) guess there will need to be some HAL tinkering to ensure that Sugar gets notified and the underlying OS does not.
