[Bug 272188] Re: USB devices cause desktop to freeze in Intrepid

[deivid]

I'm experiencing a similar problem in a laptop running Linux Mint 9. The
laptop is a Sony Vaio from the VGN series as well, and the usb device is
an external 320 GB hard drive. The freeze apparently happens when moving
large files in to the usb device. The folders and other stuff in the
desktop remain unresponsive although I can access the files via
terminal. I cannot access the usb device at all. When I unplug the usb
device everything starts again, the folders I double clicked in the
desktop get opened, etc. When the problem happens, the device does a low
strange repetitive sound (doesn't look good).

uname -a  gives

Linux chaba 2.6.32-24-generic #41-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 19 01:12:52 UTC
2010 i686 GNU/Linux

I'm happy to provide any other information.

Thanks a lot.
