aze Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 hey all! i'm running mandrake 10 official. well, everytime i connect my flashdrive at any usb port is the same: it is recognized and works normally. but if i remove and reconnect again it isn't recognized (the flashdrive led isnt activated) then i need to restart entire system to get it working again. what about makedev? should i use it?

liquidzoo Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 I would check the output of lsmod and see if the following modules are loaded: usb_storage usb-hotplug (I think that's what it's called, but I'm not sure) If not, add them to /etc/modprobe.conf (or modprobe.preload) At that point, it should work for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aze Posted July 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 modprobe usbcore modprobe usb-storage modprobe usb-uhci mount -t usbdevfs /dev/sda1 /proc/bus/usb /dev/sda1 already mounted or /proc/bus/usb busy according to mtab, none is already mounted on /proc/bus/usb guys, im really have a serious problem in my /dev structure! modprobe returns nothing... Sometimes when i turn on the pc, after loading nvidia driver and before starting loading KDE the system simply freezes. then I go to a terminal as root and top says modprobe is a defunct proccess. I try to kill it but it still defunct. I dont want to re-install the system again. Thanks for any help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
