Well, it gets even weirder, for me anyway.
I tried plugging my Cruzer Mini into a couple of other machines to see if I
could duplicate the 'hangs up for a long time on mount' problem, but I wound
up with something ever weirder going on!
My Cruzer Mini (256MB) has always reported Vendor/Product ID of 0781:8185.
---------------
Aside: In fact, I even provided a patch to Vojtech Pavlik to upgrade the
'usb.ids' file since that particular Product ID was missing. I assumed that
Sandisk used the same PID for all capacities, so I used 'SDCZ2-nnn' in the
first part of the description (nnn=256 for me). It appears as if your Cruzer
Mini is reporting VID/PID of 0781:7101, so maybe my assumption was wrong.
What capacity is your Cruzer Mini?
---------------
Now, for reasons unknown, this same Sandisk Cruzer Mini seems to be reporting
VID/PID of 05E3:07A0 ('Genesys Logic, Inc.', 'Pen Flash')! How in the world
could that be?!?!? I thought I was losing my sanity at first, but I tried
plugging it into 2 other PCs and all 3 reported the same thing!
As stated previously, I've re-partitioned the Cruzer Mini a few times, but
I've never noticed the VID/PID being altered -- I didn't think that was
possible, since it should be coming from [E][P]ROM.
Back on the subject of slow mounts, I have not noticed it occurring in my
recent testing. The closest I came was a long delay (probably a couple of
minutes, but I wasn't timing it) when I powered up my Shuttle SN41G2 (nForce2
chipset), plugged in the Sandisk Cruzer Mini, and tried to just 'cat /proc/
bus/usb/devices'. I don't think I've ever seen it hang up for a long time at
_that_ step before! It eventually recovered and reported the results, but, as
stated earlier, with the oddball VID/PID.
I guess I'm more confused than ever. 8*]
Can anyone explain how such a simple USB device could start reporting a
different VID/PID?
