I'm finding that mounting SD cards is problematic on the new computer. I'm suspecting there might be a cable that didn't get plugged in, but I haven't opened the case up to see. f-spot sometimes mounts the camera, and my old usb card reader seems to do a better job than the one built in to the computer. Luckily, the SD card I use in my camera is only 1G, not an SDHC, which the old USB reader definitely wouldn't handle. So far, none of this fiddling has damaged the disk, so you may have a problem I don't. -- Laura (mailto:lconrad-O0WJhd4tT3hg9hUCZPvPmw at public.gmane.org) (617) 661-8097 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139 http://www.laymusic.org/ http://www.serpentpublications.org What a natural history of religion would show is that the human experience of the divine has deep roots in psychoactive plants and fungi.
