I am using the new kernel on a old Compaq nx9010 (duals w/XP) and my
like-new Sony at home. 

I never had the issues that Karl states (plugging in the USB drive and,
not have it auto-mount, not have it list the contense).

I too use F7 on each device - at this point, one must wonder what it is
that either Karl is doing wrong OR, what type/old is the hardware?

It's just odd (to me at least) that nearly-everything Karl seems to do
- fails.
