Hi Debian users,

    I'm using debian testing, kernel 2.6.7 on an IBM T41 laptop.

    I have a Sony digital camera with a 256 MB Memory Stick Pro. To read
this, I have been using this a usb device: PNY Memory Stick reader. This
has enabled me to mount the stick as an external drive with the
following line in /etc/fstab

/dev/fatflash   /memorystick            vfat            rw,user,noauto 
0       0

and then just typing

mount /memorystick

and up until a week or so ago, this worked like a charm.

    But now I get the following error

mount: /dev/fatflash is not a valid block device


and typing "dmesg| grep usb" gives me

usbcore: registered new driver usbfs
usbcore: registered new driver hub

usb 4-4: device not accepting address 8, error -71
usb 4-4: new high speed USB device using address 9
usb 4-4: device not accepting address 9, error -71
.........

and so on.

    This is a recent development as I was just using this a few weeks
ago. I don't update every day, but I have updated prior to this change.
Anybody have any ideas?
