Public bug reported:
Rigt after mounting my 160 gb FreeAgent external hard drive I can right
click and create a folder and then I can move files to it but if I go
into another folder the subfolders are all read only and then if I back
out the root folders appear normal until I start single clicking on them
and highlighting them, they have a little lock that appears and they are
now read only, can no longer write to the drive and have to unmount and
remount. Acually have to unplug and plug back in because it won't let
me remount, it says cannot read superblock. Mounts fine when I plug
back in though. Properties says the owner is my username and it says
write and delete files for my permissions. The drive is formatted to
fat 32. This is on a Toshiba Satellite A105-4104 with Gutsy Gibbon
