Hello,
I would like to let you know that I have, with a great amount of luck, managed to make Ubuntu recognize USB hard drives correctly.
In my case, the problem dissolved when I downgraded the package gvfs to the jaunty version.
I have also uninstalled the devicekit-disks package, which does not have the jaunty version. And suddenly, even without restarting, my USB hard drive just started working again. It is now recognized correctly and actually works.
It is strange. It was quite tricky to find out which packages had been the cause. But fortunately, it was as easy as downgrading and uninstalling them to make my USB hard drive working again.
I hope you will have at least as much succes as I had.
Have a nice day!
