I'm overall having a fairly smooth transition to Karmic, but right now no USB sticks or SD cards I plug into my panp4 are recognized. Has anyone else had this problem?

I'm seeing some USB port problems after the online upgrade, but none so far after fresh installs.

I've not figured out what is going on yet. I'm working with another customer on resolving this, albeit on a different computer. But I'll report back with my findings.

I have the same issue on a PanP4. Haven't checked and SD card, but a kingston I plugged in last night would not recognize. Had to manually mount it.

Would love a workaround here.

there's a bug, seems to be floating around on the 64bit installs.

a temp fix is run this in the terminal

sudo udev stop
sudo udev start

then esata/usb/sd card reader will automount after.

I see there's a update in the proposed updates for karmic that you can get in the update manager now for udev which fixes the problem of detection/automounting of hotswap devices now.
