I have the same problem with a P4 2.4, 1 GB RAM, tested on all the onboard (Gigabyte 8PE667 Ultra) USB ports (all of them are 2.0).
Tested loading and unloading ehci-hcd. Perhaps this happens due some kind of software uptate. I didn't had this problem a month ago. I have Ubuntu 8.10 and with the previous version I had no problem with USB drives. Sorry about my bad english. -- file transfer on USB disk slows down with gvfs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197762 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
