System Freeze when using USB mass storage


I have SUSE 9.1 It autodetects my usb mass storage perfectly and displays it under devices, however, whenever I try and use it, the files show up, but if I ever try to do anything to them, my computer completely freezes. Any ideas?

Yes, switch off submount and use the 'normal' way of mounting:

Ok, thanks, that works fine, although there was no HOTPLUG_USE_SUBSF=yes and I had to create it in the directory contrary to what the SUSE instructions said. It works fine, and my system no longer crashes. Thx. Anyone know what actualled caused the freezes?
