I apologize if this is already been discussed but my searching has not provided me with any solutions.

When I plug any device like my USB hard drive or my blackberry into my computer, then turn it on, it sees the device no problem etc. When I remove the device, and then plug it back in, the computer never detects it. I have to reboot my machine.

I am running Kalyway 10.5.2. Here is the specs of my machine:

Motherboard:
ga-m61p-s3

chipset nvidia geforce 6100/nforce 430 Chipset

Thanks

Had the same problem, after I upgraded to kalyway 10.5.3 the problem went away.
It seems apple put a fix in.

Thanks for the tip...with kalyway i gotta download the entire install disk right?

Just the 10.5.3 Update.
About 500 MB.

ok i thought u could only do that with vanilla kernel?

It has vanilla kernel and 10.5.3 patched kernel.
On 1 computer I installed the vanilla kernel for my core 2 duo.
On the other I installed the patched 10.5.3 kernel.

OK, I am running a AMD so I know vanilla kernel is not gonna work for me so I believe the update will crash am i right?

Kalyway has a combo update, First the update, then a kernel update, If you download it, it has a howto you can read!

SticMAN

thanks i will look into it
