[Bug 17881] Re: usb flash memory hangs after copying few MB

[Antti Koskinen]

Same problems here with Fiesty (AMD64), a Nokia 3110c cell phone, a
Sony-Ericsson W300i phone and a Canon PowerShot G6 digital camera. The
system just randomly hangs with nothing particularly interesting in
system logs. On the SE phone this caused file system corruption and
bricked the device after a system freeze while copying files to the
phone flash memory. The strange thing is that other USB mass storage
devices, like external hard drives, seem to work fine. It's just the
flash memory based devices that cause these serious lockups.

I've seen this happen on Ubuntu Edgy (2.6.17-11), now on Feisty
(2.6.20-16) and on even on Feisty with a custom 2.6.21.1 kernel. At
least it's consistent... *sigh*
