[Bug 197762] Re: file transfers on USB disk are very slow

[Shawn Reist]

I have been following this post for some time.

I have installed Debian Lenny and started using that as a primary system 
and the Ubuntu system I have I tinker with.

Call me a rebel or such.. but I have noticed differences on how the 
systems' (Ubuntu and Debian) handle file transfers.

I am not a super geek and can't devote a lot of time to tracking down 
the differences.

One thing I have noticed is that Ubuntu does not write some of the 
configuration files for USB devices. . .or that some of the utilities 
required to read the USB information can't retrieve anything because the 
required files do not exist.  there are increasing wait periods or data 
written/read from a USB device, something in the wait states. . . 
someone with more technical familiarity needs to look at these.

As far as I can see there are several issues, but without some help or 
guidance I can't give more information. Most people from what I see are 
quoting the same fixes over and over; it is or has become a circular 
enigma. Specific data has to be collected from a range of systems in a 
specific order and collated/sorted through.
