However I suspect that code is incorrect, because the command was ALLOW_MEDIUM_REMOVAL, which doesn't require the slot to read anything from the stick. More likely the slot just can't handle the command at all. Fortunately it's possible to prevent the command from being sent. If you post the output from "lsusb -v" for your device, I can send you a patch.

Does the slot not work? You haven't said what happens when you try to use the stick. Those errors messages above aren't fatal.
