Hi All,
SL 6.2 64 bit
Has anyone noticed that their USB 2.0 ports are really,
really slow?
If I need to copy anything substantial to my USB 2 sticks,
I boot into Fedora Live 17 Xfce 64 bit CD. Then it goes
about 20 times faster than under SL 6.2.
Anyone have a work around?
Many thanks,

It might help if you mentioned what USB hardware, exactly, you are
using, and what you're doing on it. Flash drives? External Storage? Do
you re-arrange your attached devices when you boot to Fedora 7?
The stick usually is a Kanguru Flash Blue II (20 MB/s write,
24 MB/s read). But sometimes it is a Verbatim (same speed as the
Flash Blue).
There is no rearrangement. Usually, I try to copy and realize
it is taking forever, I cancel the copy, I insert one of my Fedora
Live Xfce CD's, and reboot. I do not even remove the stick
from the port.
If you think it would help, I can look up the motherboard and
all, but I think the Live CD test eliminates hardware as
the problem.
Thank you for the help,
