Hi,
I have the following machines :
desktop with Suse 8.1, Suse 9.1, win98
laptop with Suse 9.0, winxp

I also have a USB storage pen (256 MB) USB 2.0 that works fine with winxp
and Suse 8.1 .
When insertted in the Suse 8.1 PC it is detected and it becomes visible.
On the same PC, with Suse 9.1, when inserted, nothing happens. The light
on the pen doesn't turn on and it doesn't show in the /media directory.

On the laptop, with Suse 9.0, it just crashes the machine a few seconds
after insertion.
It works fine on the laptop with winxp.

I'm going to upgrade te laptop to Suse 9.1, but I'd really like to get the
USB
storage to work on all PCs.

Any ideas ?

Thanks,

Arthur
