When plugging in a USB Thumb Drive, I get the following error: "The kernel driver for this filesystem type is not available.: Error mounting: mount: /dev/sdb1: can't read superblock". Any fixes to try? Thanks.

What file system do you think is on the thumb drive? FAT32 should be fine. Perhaps if it's one of those U3 (or whatever it's called) active thumb drives there might be an issue.
If it's not a weird filesystem - or completely unformatted - then I would suspect a filesystem error. Can you read it on a Mac/Windows system? You could recover the data and reformat it ...I'd rather be locked out than locked in. -
Formatted as FAT32. Just plugged it in again, got the same error, fired up KDE Partition Manager to reformat it as ext3. Hopefully that works..Comment

FAT32 is definitely supported; it must have had a formatting error.I'd rather be locked out than locked in.Comment
