Do you have any other USB drives to test with?  It's common that the
solder joints get weak when flexed in a pocket.  I think the current USB
scan interval is 2 seconds (and this can probably be changed with a
switch somewhere).  So if your drive is intermittent and you disconnect
and reconnect within that 2 second interval, then a new mount point
would be created.  This is normal behavior.  An intermittent USB drive
is not normal, and you risk losing data if the drive disconnects during
a transfer.

Marking Incomplete pending tests with a known, intact USB drive.


** Changed in: hal (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: None => hal
