Well there is no problem with the other two distros I mentioned on the same 
machine Lucid 10.04 with TDE and Hardy 8.04 with Kde3. Both bring up the 
plugged media notifier when the usb harddrive is plugged in or when I insert 
a video dvd.

One thing I do see though when I plug in the usb harddrive on Precise 12.04 
and have the kcontrol usb module open on the desktop, is that sometimes he 
harddive is shown initially under ohci_hcd, but when I replug it it shows 
correctly under ehci_hcd.
