USB Not Automounting in 10.04 <Solved - Sort of>

[Barry Premeaux]

32 bit Ubuntu 10.04 kernel 2.6.32-23.

This is what I have found for the -22 and -23 kernels.

If I have already booted up, it doesn't matter what usb device I plug
in.  It will show up on lsusb.  In dmesg, it acknowledges that
something has been plugged in, but goes no further.  In -21, it is not
only seen in lsusb, but dmesg shows it as there and the proper driver
is loaded.

If I plug the device in prior to boot up, it is recognized during the
boot up process on the -22 and -23 kernels.  My usb mouse is
recognized and the usb flash drive is loaded and listed under places.

It appears that the usb hot-plug function is not working in the latest
two kernel versions.
