USB detection problem

I'm not sure if this is the place to ask, but here we go.

KDE does not seem to be detecting any USB devices. In prompt if I type more /proc/bus/usb/devices (as this page instructs) It shows that my ipod, USB drive and wacom graphics tablet are detected. When I start up KDE, however, nothing shows up. There are no icons for the ipod or the stick in the storage devices folder. I think they used to show up, but I haven't used the comp for many months, so I'm not sure.

What might be relevant are the instructions here, but I don't understand how you are supposed to "enable the following in your kernal" (If you haven't guessed already, I am new at this).

Well if anyone knows what to do, I look forward to hearing from you.
