Hi folks, This is simply a question if there's someone else out there who has seen the same things happen. However, if you have any solution...
We've got USB-stick access here in our school for the students, the system on the server is Suse 10.3 (so it's relatively up-to-date), but sometimes weird things happen: 1) One out of 10 or so sticks seem not to be detected by the system, i. e. Linux simply ignores them. No message in /var/log/messages, simply nothing happens. The lamp on such stick will glow permanently, no connection is made. We tried several terminals, but to no avail. I remember vaguely a thread about this (or something similar), but at that time, USB wasn't a topic for us here, so I never followed the discussion. Is there a general LINUX problem with USB sticks, or does this relate to LTSP somehow? 2) Most students come with unformatted USB sticks. Sometimes (sorry, cannot put it more precise) if they save more than one file or folder on the stick, Windows will not see the very last one saved. It's there, under Linux, no data lost, but the name only appears on the Linux side. It's invisible on Windows. Is this a specific problem on our system, or does this have to do with formatted/unformatted sticks (couldn't clearly sort it out yet). Thanks for all your comments.
