Device ID

[Brannyh]

How do you find the device node for a USB drive in Kubuntu.

Hi,
Try pasting these commands into Konsole/terminal after the device is plugged in (and turned on if necessary). One of these should give you the info you are looking for.

sudo fdisk -l

List all of your disks and shows the device names and partition info.

sudo blkid

Shows you the UUIDs and device names of all the disks.

sudo lshw

Lists all hardware and their info.

Hope this helps.

actually what I think you're looking for is the 'lsusb' command.

You can add the '-v' switch to it to get more info.
