Dear Mr. Murray, thanks for your answer. But did you read carefully my post ?
I have 2 problems that seems possibily related to me : * one action that used to be efficient is not any more, and I cannot understand why a HDD conveniently detected (as /dev/sdd) doesn not have its partition accessible in the same way. I have never see this behavior before, from Ubuntu 6.06 to 10.10, and Debian 3.0 to 6.0. If this way of access is deprecated, it should be completely prevented, not just incompletely. That sounds really weird ; * AND the other problem, with changing /dev/ entries which cause trouble to hddtemp and the udisk probe (letting the Gnome panel temperature applet report incorrect values for HDD). There must be a way to fix these /dev entries, but I'm not enough skilled to find it alone. And one more time, that used to work perfectly in earlier versions of Ubuntu. Now, same actions lead to incorrect results. Thanks for your time & help.
