Have you checked that you have permissions set to allow you access to group usb ? Have you tried to access it as root - TAKE CARE ! Finally a last desperate shot in the dark, is it really a model e50 or is it a newer variation that might not be supported - the e50 has been around for a while and may have been upgraded ?
