Gutsy USB support in AMD64/KDE

[Brian Astill]

Thought  I'd repost this with further info.
Gutsy USB  support in AMD64 works just fine in Gnome - ie the USB  
port and stick are OK.  But no joy in KDE.  Odd.

The 'usual' usbutils and so on are installed and  work  OK in 
Gnome..
I tried  to read my USB stick using usbview (in KDE) and received 
an error message that suggested  I need to compile a new kernel 
for this.  
The 'usual'  desktop logos do not appear and invitations to peruse 
are not offered 

Suggestions, anyone?
