Well I won't have to ask again, your answers are all written out in several
places.
Now for the red-face comment -
After I posted the message I decided to recheck the unit and I learned that
you can find about the driver that is installed. Me and my buddy failed in
our attempts to change it to UMF so now to go back to his computer and try
again. Explains why it isn't recognised as more than a USB device. SuSE
reported the Make, Model and much more than Kanotix did.
Thanks all
