I did a clean network install of F11 preview on this machine, hoping to be able to use the "multi media card reader" gizmo which accepts memory stick, sd cards etc.
When I insert a memory stick, the little blue light comes on at the front panel, but how do I get Linux to recognize it as a drive (or whatever) so I can drag/drop files to/from it?
Do I have to mount it? How do I know what the device it to mount?
You need to start by telling us what desktop you're using.
I believe it's Gnome.. the default.
However, the issue is solved now... I manually installed am-utils and then it worked properly. Perhaps am-utils should have been installed automatically, I don't know why it was omitted.
Thanks
Also, I've come across some other problems (small bugs)... what's the best way to file those?
For Fedora bugs: http://bugzilla.redhat.com, but if the bug is not specific to Fedora then it's more appropriate to send it upstream, e.g. http://bugzilla.gnome.org, http://bugs.kde.org etc. If you aren't sure, just report it as a Fedora bug.
Thanks.
