To clarify what I mean by address, lets say the drive is listed as /dev/hdb1 it will randomly chang...

I get this same error after the ipod has been mounted. Then if the ipod is connected multiple times this message is displayed multiple times as seperate messages. I want to suppress it as it is extremely annoying!

"Animation Addons" is not in CCSM for some reason. I've installed everything I need for Compiz to run and works fine, but those extra effects are missing. Not sure why, any ideas? Running Linux Mint XFCE 13.
