Try to boot with this additional kernel argument:

Some one in the forum had this problem, and that setting solved it.

I told him to write a bugzilla and tell you, but I'm afraid he doesn't want to. :-(
Look, if someone doesn't see the need to communicate a bug issue the predefined way, then this issue might be less pressing. Also not all Open Source Software developers eager to be subscribed to yet another mailing list. Ask yourself why should a Linux kernel or a glibc guy hang around here?
Only a bugreport will get visible to the Linux kernel developers. In this particular question they're aware of it. Unfortunately I don't know a bug ID which is used to track this issue. By filing a new report we at least would soon see if it got reported in the past at all.
Recently we had a guy on this or the German list not being able better not being willing to offer the requested information. Even after asking back a second time. And even after giving the detailed description what's need.
What are you suggesting to do in such a case? To burn more time with such people? I don't even black list them. I already forgot the name and particular issue we discussed as anything else is a waste of time and energy.
I believe all we can do is to enhance the documentation and to make the process of offering the required inforamtion as smooth as possible.
We always must keep in mind that there is a small amount of people with only one goal: to get their individual issue solved. They don't care about others nor about the progress of Open Source Software in general.
Well, that might work one or two times for them. I expect the majority of people active in the OSS community unmasks such people very fast.
I suggest to wait some days and then request the needed information as outlined by http://lists.openSUSE.org/opensuse/2012-03/msg00657.html again. Some people are not this fast or are not aware that their input might help to solve a generic issue.
In my case as I said that the problem went away after reboot. I had not rebooted the system for days. I said I would file the report when the problem recurs. Not that I don't want to file it (it's only going to help users like me) but I don't know what to file unless I get the problem again. If just creating a bug report that my system freezes when I try to transfer data to USB is going to help then I will file. The only problem I see is if the maintainer or a developer asks for more info I won't be able to provide unless I see the problem again. So, what do you propose in this case? I will do accordingly. lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2012-03/msg00702.html Best
Cheers,
Lars
