Tried selecting autorun something and there was no change in behaviour.
Plug the stick in and a light on the stick comes on and a light on the
hub comes on. After about a second both go out and nothing else happens.
However, plug in a HDD and a window opens showing the content of the
drive and that is without selecting autorun. Must be something in the
stick that Xubuntu doesn't like but Ubuntu does, how odd.
