    Question Can't write/delete files to media in USB Hub

    Hi!

    I've bought a PNY USB HUB COMBO which has three USB ports and accepts most card based media. Thing is, when I plug it in I can charge/read all USB/cards, but I can't write to, or delete from, anything.

    The only way I've found to work around this is to use kdesudo dolphin to get a root window and use that.

    Is there a way to write/delete to media without needing kdesudo?

    If you don't have gvfs installed, install it and try again. No guarantee .....
