The debugging log was very helpful. It shows exactly what the problem is: The drive crashes when handed a command for which support is mandatory. The kernel was changed some time ago to avoid sending that command, but recently another change undid the effect of the first one. Yet a third change to fix things back up has been posted: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-usb-devel&m=113331727523045&w=2 That patch should help solve your problem.
