I tried with Knoppix 4 and it detected all the devices however my front Usb ports are broken I then retried it with Ubuntu 6.10 and much to my embarrassment I then ran clean up Desktop by Name and the Icons were hidden behind folders.

The main thing is that it works now (apart from the front). Often telling people is enough to get the problem solved (and often embarasses you at same time - I know it happens to me lots!)
Another question. I am thinking of buying a usb hub from Dick Smith's. On its web site it says it is compatible with Windows and Mac but doesn't mention Linux. Would they be operating system independent?
