Bug Description
PQI USB U339 Cool Drive model. Drive disappears from desktop after some time. Possibly after Internet browsing, maybe a script disables it. Attempts to remount drive by plugging in and waiting for icon to appear fail. Can repeatedly happen to flash drive in all my USB ports.
Suggestion on Ubuntu forums said that it's power management for USB, but on Kubuntu I could not find the setting for it.
Perhaps it's controller based. Once it happens on slot 1 of board or casing USB ports, slot 2 also won't work.
My Computer is USB 1.1 only. Celeron 1.2 S370.
Kubuntu 6.06.
