There is no problem with detecting the stick, the window pops up, 
allowing you 'click and open in Window,
Dolphin opens, but it won't display files/folders on stick.
I just found out, by closing dolphin and any other window, then going 
over to Menu and open Dolphin, you will
see Lexar stick on tree at bottom left.  If you click on that then it 
will mount and display files/folders then.
It must be a problem on initial mount with Dolphin.
I can now see why Kubuntu didn't want to install KDE4 on 8.04, but I 
guess someone has to be the Guinea Pig to get the bugs out,  "Give it to 
them Fedora people they will try anything"
Now Guys, I'm not complaining here, so please don't flame me. I'm going 
to hang in there.
