Removeable Drives aren't available


Im using Ubuntu 6.06.

When ever I load a cd or usb flash drive, it doesn't load. The cd rom image is on the desktop but when i click it, it opens and goes to the CD/DVD Creator File Browser.

Why does this do that? And how do i get it to work.

If you right click on it, there should be a choice to mount it.

If that is not the case, then your system is not configured correctly. I believe hotplug is the package that controls that.
