Is your drive USB 2.0 but your Computer USB 1.1 perhaps (or vise versa)? -- _____________________________________ John Andersen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Well ... the USB pendrive is 2.0 fo sure (written on it). On the other hand (I do not know much about hardware) I have look in YAST and I have 4 USB Contollers - 3 are 1.0 and 1 is 2.0. As a test, I tryed to write on pendrive using all of them but the transfere is steel ~50 KB/s. Is there a way to improve it? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

There was an issue with writing to flash drives, when automounted by the desktop. In that situation, "sync" (IIRC) was enabled, which cause the poor performance. This problem didn't occur, if the drives were mounted with fstab and nosync option included. -- Use OpenOffice.org http://www.openoffice.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

You can influence how it is mounted by going to Konqueror and on the left tab choosing System, then Storage Media and right-clicking on the device icon and selecting Properties. There should be a tab called "Mounting" that allows you to uncheck synchronous mounting.

But when doing so, make sure you never yank it out of the usb port without a proper dismount, because sometimes writing to the device never even starts till the system has nothing to do or a sync command is given by the safely remove option of the desktop icon. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Have you tried to determine how it is mounted? Is it mounted sync or not? It has been discussed in this list before. If it is sync, it runs pretty slow, around your speeds. -- Joseph Loo jloo@acm.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
