I'm affected by the very same behavior on Lucid (2.6.32-24-generic #39-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jul 28 05:14:15 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux). In most cases, when plugging in an USB massstorage device, the system simply hangs (no log messages, no error, simply dead), occasionally the system does not hang with different symptoms (one or some of):
- dmesg says the device is not ready - no auto mounting by Gnome - auto mounting but loosing the device after some seconds - mount/unmounting of the device in short time spans (30 seconds) Interestingly, the device is mounted fine and somewhat stable, although the system sometimes still hangs after some time. -- plugging in a usb drive hangs system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/517070 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
