This is not the only application that crashes with the same message. (update-manager, palimpsest)

ops, update-notifier, not update-manager

Adding gnome-disk-utility, since the error specifies "libgdu".
Anyway this bug needs attention, I can't mount external storage devices

Actually a clean beta1 install fixed the problem for me.

This has reared its head on Maverick too...

OK, so I've spent a few hours trying to track down a possible cause of this bug as it also affects palimpsest (Disk Utility); when run both would exit with the device_recurse error. However, a Maverick install in a VirtualBox VM didn't have these issues, hence it must be hardware-dependent (I also tried Debian squeeze versions of g-d-u and libgdu).
I have a Dell Studio 17 (1749) into which I have connected an external USB keyboard and mouse - and with a sudden flash of inspiration I unplugged both and tried running palimpsest. Surprise - runs correctly. Even when I plugged both back in palimpsest ran correctly, as did gvfs-gdu-
Could it be that g-d-u is trying to find filesystems on USB peripherals?
lspci is attached.

After rebooting with neither USB device connected I was greeted by my internal NTFS drives mounted with labels, and USB drive auto-mounting working. No problem when I reconnected my keyboard and mouse either.

OK, so I rebooted with both devices attached and all seems good. I wonder if it is down to having the devices connected during installation? (Somewhere along the line it thinks keyboard and mouse are system devices, but there is something else plugged into the USB ports?)

Thanks for the report, it has been some time without any response or feedback in this bug report and we are wondering if this is still an issue for you with the latest release of Ubuntu the Natty Narwhal, May you please test with that version and comment back if you're still having or not the issue? Please have a look at http://
