I have a memory stick that works under 10.0 and 10.1. In 10.2 the stick is not recognizable because the partion table is not recognized. I was thinking of repartition the stick and reformat it. Is it possible to do this under 10.2. I tried YAST but the driver does not show up at all.
I purchased 4-memory sticks today and tried them all out on both 10.1 and 10.2 everything reads and works well. They automatically detected. To reformat one you will have decide what filesystedm you wish.
I was going to format it as either a standard FAT or FAT32. The problem is that the USB stick shows up under 10.0 & 10.1. In 10.2, it says the partition table is not recognize. I need to repartition the USB stick and reformat it. Second problem, the stick does not show up in YAST so I can not d anything with it.
I tried it in both 10.1 and 10.2 after reading your original post. No problems with eithe rone and it does show up fine with fat32 using "My Computer" Icon which is really just Konqueror. You may want try: lsusb command after putting the stick in. Also, can you check to see if the USB is working on that computer outside of the sticks? Is the USB bus overloaded with current draining devices on that machine?
Bottom line is that your situation can not be reproduced on my 10.2 machines. I think reformatting may be a waste of time. Also, if lsusb doesn't see it you won't be able to reformat it anyway on that machine.
I tried lsusb and the device does not show up. I tried it with 2 other computers, one 10.0 & 10.1. It sows up without any problem. It is the only device plugged into the computer slot. To the drain problem, I can not tell. You might have brought up a situation where the on board USB is a problem.
I just tried on another prot and it comes up without a problem. It looks like I have a defective port.
I have two USB ports on the front of my machine and they are defective. I have spent the time yet to replace the cable and see if things improve. This is a 10.2 machine too and not reading the USB stick but I have three others that are reading it that are 10.2. So I think your on to something. Do you have any other USB devices you plug in and try? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
