he upgraded *to* Debian Testing. I think he did just like I did: updated his existing
installation. I did an upgrade (debian testing) a couple of
weeks ago, and found
xfce could no longer automout USB sticks and drives (pmount still
works). On Monday, I decided to do some work on an Arduino, and it
seems that also can no longer recognise boards plugged in via usb.
Just curious, what would be the need to upgrade to Debian *testing* in
the first place ? Sorry, Will, but I did same upgrade and don't have
any problem with USB drives and such. I don't have an Arduino, so can't check
that.
It seems there are two separate issues that just happened to appear at the same
time.
The Arduino one I solved by getting the package direct from the Arduino website
(it is completely self contained).
The automount one is puzzling. Initially I thought it was a permissions issue of
some sort, but couldn't find any that have changed. Further investigation
suggests this is a glib problem :(

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
