I've got an old 250 GB Maxtor disk which has one ext3 partition on it and I want to get some files from it using a JMicron USA Technology Corp. JM20337 Hi-Speed USB to SATA & PATA Combo Bridge. I plug in the usb device and attach my HD and then plug the HD into an external power supply. Then nothing happens after that lsusb gives

and dmesg gives

how do I mount the partition on the disk?

It seems it didn't detect anything connected at the other end .... maybe something to do with "usb 2-3: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 2"
You should expect to see something like

usb 1-4: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

sd 8:0:0:0: [sdg] Attached SCSI disk
there's your device name.
So, assuming you want the first partition:
mkdir /mnt/getstuff
mount /dev/sdg1 /mnt/getstuff
Tada--mounted. If it doesn't like that, try giving an FS type (mount -t ext3 /dev...). But, that's usually not an issue for ext3.
Now, there is one odd thing...I'm used to seeing a line with partitions just before the "Attached SCSI disk" line, like so:
sdg: sdg1 sdg2
But, it could be a new kernel thing...
If you don't have partitions in /dev, then something's wrong.
If you have hal running, and a nice GUI environment, are any apps that normally see removable drives not showing anything (FI, Dolphin)?

Wow, I didn't notice that line, i'll try that when I get home. Many thanks!

For reference, here's the output of mine, plugging in my old 160 GB Windows drive:

I can see that you have sdd: sdd1 sdd2
but my disk has only one partition.

Then at least sdx: sdx1 should show up. Try fdisk -l as root and see if anything besides your fixed disk shows up.

Nope nothing shows up other than my internal drives.

I think you need to power it up before you plug in the USB cable. At least, that's what seems to have worked for me today.
