I have a USB flash memory stick (FAT formatted) that I am trying to read 
under 9.2. It works fine on the same brand new laptop under Windows XP Pro 
(of course).

Under 9.2, when I plug in the stick, a /mnt/removable icon appears on the 
desktop, but when I click on that icon, a Konq window pops up and says that 
there are no files on the stick.

Looking in /var/log/messages when I plug it in, I see:

... lots more read errors

I'm guessing that I'm probably missing some important entry in /etc/fstab 
or something. Any ideas, anyone?

(This is actually an improvement -- in the past, USB sticks have typically 
frozen my older Mdk systems.)

PS to Rolf: As you suggested, I also e-mailed Mdk about the urpmi scripts 
on the club pages; so probably they'll get changed in the next day or two, 
I imagine.
