thanks robthebold,
I tried updating everything on my ubuntu computer still no dice.
@michaaa62
I tried looking on gparted but it didn't give me any other information than "fdisk -l" as the drive has no partitions. What is your fdisk output.
I have found that Clementine can see the N900 properly so am using that now. I am interest in what robthebrave or michaaa62 fdisk -l says.

Here's what I get when I fdisk first the N900 internal storage (sdd) and then the N900 SD card (sde1):
Everything seems OK with both volumes, but Amarok still only finds the internal storage after mounting the SD card. And as I mentioned in an earlier post, there are no media tracks on SD.
Code:
rob@hymie:~$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdd
Disk /dev/sdd: 29.0 GB, 28995223552 bytes
64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 27652 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
rob@hymie:~$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sde1
Disk /dev/sde1: 16.6 GB, 16570646528 bytes
64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 15803 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes

problem fixed on amarok 2.4.3!!!!
I've got Kubuntu 11.04 and Amarok 2.4.0. My N900 has a 16GB SD card installed. Never could see the N900 as a mass storage device with Amarok. I just assumed that the two didn't play together.
But I fired up Amarok for grins and giggles the other day with my phone plugged in to USB and there it was! I figured I'd gotten an update that fixed a bug.
I finished what I was doing with the phone and first unmounted the SD card -- "Nokia N900" disappears from the Media Sources in Amarok. Except my music collection is in the internal storage, not the SD card! And the internal storage volume was still mounted.
Anyway, I found that I need to have the SD card mounted for Amarok to see the tracks on the phone, even they're in internal storage. I can mount the SD card (which appears in Device Notifier as "15.4 GiB Removable Media") first, or mount "N900" first. But either way, "Nokia N900" only appears in Media Sources after mounting the SD card. And the tracks only appear after both are mounted.
Other applications see the N900 internal storage USB mass storage when mounted: file managers, DigiKam, "ls" in a terminal, etc. I don't need to mount the SD card except for Amarok.
If anyone's interested I can grab the debug output sometime or play with the phone with and without the SD Card.
