9.04 was installed from Alternate-CD with encrypted LVM.

Upgrade to 9.10 was performed by "update-manager -d"

All seemed to go according to plan, rebooted, got login screen, got desktop..

So far so good.

1)Plugging in any USB External Hard Drive, shows up by name but will not mount the drive.

2)Going to my home documents directory I see contents.. /home/user/documents

3)Going to the direct home directory /home/user shows nothing, just the spinning cursor.

4)I can terminal and cd /home/user/ the do an 'LS' and list the contents

5)If I 'LS -L' it sits there doing nothing.. (apparently)

will these be sorted by the next two days i ask myself :-)

Anyone got any ideas... I'm lost now.
