Hi,
I have a USB 2.0 flash drive called "next alien" ("developed by Emgeton,
assembled in Taiwan, copyright Bell technology" - not very high-end, but it
looks funny :-) ) and identifying itself as "Nu Drive" (see the log below)
which I'd like to get working with Linux. Right now, I'm running Gentoo
kernel 2.6.18-r4 (with USB debugging turned on), and when I insert it into
the USB port, its LED starts blinking and /var/log/messages gets

Using previous kernels (both plain and Gentoo), I've been getting somewhat
different errors, but the stick never really worked under Linux. Works under
Windows, though.
