Description shawn tanner 2005-11-09 21:03:05 UTC 
If I set my computer up to access the wireless network at my home and then turn on the computer at work (or any place where the wireless connection will fail) then I have problems with usb drives not showing up in the my computer folder.  Suseplugger does not open the usual dialog box either.  The drives do get mounted under /media but no icons show up in "My Computer".  If I remnove the wireless configuration in yast and reboot or if I reboot at home where the wireless connection will work then everything works as it should.

I have no idea what is going on here.

Does 'rcnetwork stop' help also? Do you get any related messages (e.g. in /var/log/messages)? 

Coolo, any idea?

no. If there are no icons in "My computer" it basically means, kded didn't notice the added signal. Would be interesting if lshal --monitor sees them
