I'm using ubuntu 10.10 netbook edition. I have some data on a thumb drive that I want to put on my computer but when I plug in the thumb drive, nothing happens. I search for the file and it's not there. /media is empty. How do I mount this thumbrive and make it mount automatically?
output of dmesg. The Total output was too large, so I put in what I thought would be relevant:
