Lucid Lynx (10.04) mounts external drive for administrator but not for user
In a dual boot configuration with Windows XP, Lucid Lynx (10.04) mounts the external USB hard drive for the administrator but it won't mount it or show it for the user. Shared files are saved on the external hard drive so this doesn't work. I checked user permissions and all the boxes for removable drives and storage are checked. I can't find any other permissions that would interfere with the user's ability to use external hard drives. I don't see anything that would reserve the external hard drive for the administrator. The only clue I found is that the external hard drive properties tab under administrator shows that permissions can't be determined.
I need to make the external hard drive available to all users. How does one correct this?
