Using Ubuntu 11.10, how do I format an external or USB drive? I don't find an option to 'format' when I right click. In the new version, the drives don't come up on the desktop but instead come on the Launcher.

You can use the disk utility(installed by default) to format the drive. There is an option 'format volume' select that option.
