Bug Description
When I plug in the USB thumb drive it doesn';t show up anywhere. I remember it worked once but not since.
I remember I had the same problem with my other computer. I know VIRTUALBOX can see it not ubuntu or so it seems since I can't see the icon anywhere.
I remember after connecting the usb drive to the guest OS in virtualbox and then disconnecting it always appeared in ubuntu.
Please help me fix this problem. Since it's very very important to be able to access my external storage devices.
