Subject: usb memory pen broken since 2.5.72?

My USB memory pen stopped working since 2.5.72, the last time it worked for me
was 2.5.70.

dmesg output on plugin for 2.5.72/73:

.config for 2.5.70 and 2.5.73 are included in the attachment
plz tell me what to include for a proper bug report, because I don't know what
to check and were to look.

btw. the pen drive is a 128 MB pen drive with the vfat filesystem

Hopefully this is fixed in 2.5.73-bk1 (whenever it shows up.) Can you
test that? If not, can you create a bug in bugzilla.kernel.org for
this?

thanks,

well bk1 was released a few minutes/hours ago, and there aren't any changes
for usb in there, so I'll wait for bk2 and fill in the bug report right away.

Ow another question what might be a bug or a poorly configured system,
My mp3 player is a usb memory pen too, when i write to it, it can handle
300/400 kbps, my other memory pen (a real one, so non-mp3) can only handle
100kbps. is this a bug? or because of the vfat fs ?

No, it was a scsi core fix for this problem. Please test it if you can.

It may simply be hardware limitations.
Generally extra write speed costs more (in terms of either design, or
actual components)

Bleah :(

Ok, can you file a bugzilla.kernel.org bug then? I'll route it to the
proper people.
