<p

you using KDE? A while ago there was a bug that a USB device
plugged in for the second time is not recognized anymore. </p>
<p
style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;">I'm
not sure this was Leap or TW, but is fixed already (I'm using TW
on T520 and X1Extreme)</p>

<p
style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;">In
any case you should take a look at the journal (journalctl -f)
while plugging the USB drive in</p>

<p>Axel,<br>
This is on XFCE. 'journal -f' shows nothing. This does not
consistently on the second time.</p>
<p>Thank you,<br>
