Hi Allen,
Your reply is appreciated.
Yes it only wants to be fed with a teaspoon.
Still would like to know that application that needed re-install.
Thanks

Have you tried Mounting it from a Command line to see if any errors pop out? I've had a few problems similar to this before, but that was back in my SUSE 8.1 days. Heh, my first Linux Distro. Anyway, it hasn't happened in a long time, but my USB ZIP drive 100 did do this a few times. I found that making sure you mount and un-mount correctly, and don't give it a huge load all at once, that it works fine.

Hi, Running suse 9.1 - kernel 2.6.3-15mdk.(Mandrake 10.0 alternately). Installed and updated this last weekend. All this on a new pc. Do not know if my problem existed before the update.
When I transfer data to sda1 or 2 then the external drive light comes on and stays on. This hangs my pc too. Nothing works and the only recourse is to press the reset switch.
I remember sometime ago some discussions about hotplug/usb. That some application was to be re-installed from cd. I did not take that much notice of the problem because I did not have a problem.
Kindly please what was suggested to overcome this.
The new hardware may be suspected but works like a charm in Mandrake 10.0. Thanks. -- Johan Sch Registered Linux User #330034 May this be a good day for learning
