Thanks that solved the first problem but afterwards I still could neither detect the device in /proc/bus/usb/devices nor mount it.

The reason why the device was not working was that I had used the usb-plugs (it has two) in the wrong order. It seems to be that one plug is the real device and the other only power. Somehow on my laptop some of the plugs have only power and don't do anything else. Now it works again, hopefully for some time ;) Happy Hacking, Robert Himmelmann How do I type "for i in *.dvi do xdvi $i done" in a GUI? -- Discussion in comp.os.linux.misc on the intuitiveness of interfaces "Murphy's Law, that brash proletarian restatement of G�del's Theorem ..." -- Thomas Pynchon, "Gravity's Rainbow"
