Public bug reported:
I have a USB thumb drive that has a read only CD partition containing
some promotional material for a local company and a 1 Gb Fat32 partition
that is both read/write.
When inserting the drive into a computer running Xubuntu 11.04, both
partitions on the drive are recognised multiple times until the drive is
removed. Under default settings for Xubuntu 'Removable Devices and
Media', Thunar opens a pair of windows each second or so until the drive
is removed.
Optical CDs are notified once and opened once
Other USB storage drives without extra CD partitions are notified and
opened once
This drive produces the same behaviour on Xubuntu 11.04 on two different
computers, but this laptop when booted from a Live CD of Ubuntu 11.04
recognises both partitions on the drive correctly.
Using a Windows usb storage utility, the chipset and vendor/product IDs
are below...
