The same happens if you use a different USB port. (And you do get the usual sequence of USB mesages as Linux scans and automounts other USB drives?)
I'll run through this exact scenario tonight so I can give some exact answers, but from memory I can at least say this:
  • The red light always comes on when I plug it in, both on my laptop and with the USB charger.
  • If I leave it charging long enough, the led turns GREEN (not off).
  • When the led is off, and I press the power button, the led turns green for a long time. This wasn't the case when it originally crashed, but after charging it this is the behaviour now.
  • I tried it on 2 different laptops, no indication of any activity when plugging it in.

I'll try your scenario tonight, and post the results along with a picture of my screen.

Oh, and a quick thank you to everybody for all the help in diagnosing my problem so far... it's highly appreciated.
