*Hello Jan,

Well as of the morning, when I booted up Ubuntu, the flash drive was in, 
and on the desktop, it showed 2.0 GB media...This was the first tie that 
it has shown up...

Now when I move too /media, it now shows /media/disk <- the disk never 
showed up before, I now can cd to /media/disk, then do an ls it shows 
everything on the flash drive...

I have even copied a few pictures to the pictures folder, so in all it 
does work...Why it didn't prior is beyond me...

So thank you for responding back to my posting...

Have a great day...

Larry
