I've been using a USB/midi keyboard that is powered from the USB and works great and natively.

 

However nothing happens when I insert a USB flash drive formatted to FAT16(I believe).

 

I tried 3 different Sony Digital Camera's. One did nothing, the other added an icon to the desktop but caused SBBOD when i tried to open it.

 

I tried to mount it manually, but i dont see anything in /dev that looked useful.

 

I remember on redhat it was /dev/sda

 

 

 

any help is appreciated.

Have you tried to boot the computer up with the devices plugged in? This works for me and my iPod.

 

If i plug it in when OS X is running nothing happens, but if I plug it in and then start the computer it works fine. It's like the plug-and-play was removed from my USB-ports =)

 

Try it!

Cheers!
