You should be able to mount the drive with KDiskFree. KDiskFree should be installed with the default KDE installation. SUSE mounts it's drives under the /media folder. You can look at dmesg to see what device SUSE is using for the USB hard drive. dmesg will also let you know if SUSE has problems with the device. In the KDE desktop you can find it by: * Click the Salamander * Select System * Select File System * Click KDiskFree * Right click on the drive. The drive should be listed as /dev/sda0 or /dev/sda1. * Click mount Sorry, I do not know where it is listed under Gnome. You should be able to run 'kdf' from a shell.
