... In your kernel source tree, find and edit the file drivers/usb/storage/scsiglue.c. Somewhere around line 315 you'll see:
/* limit the total size of a transfer to 120 KB */ .max_sectors = 240,
Change that to read
/* limit the total size of a transfer to 64 KB */ .max_sectors = 128,
and rebuild the usb-storage module. Other people have found that once this change has been made their Genesys devices work okay.
Thank you! I will try that patch when I have access to the machine next monday and report the result.
In the meantime I've got an interesting observation: The problem doesn't occur on another machine. Differences are a SiS chipset with VIA USB controller instead of the Intel chipset and slightly slower CPU (2.4GHz instead of 2.8GHz).
