Alan,
        Run "dmesg" after you plug it in and see what the system reports when
the drive is inserted.  You might post the last ~10-20 lines of the
output here and we'll be able to help a bit better.  This will tell you
a lot about what it sees.  "lsusb" run as root will also tell you a fair
amount about how functional the setup is.
                        -Mike
