I am seeing the same problem as well when copying from Ubuntu to an external USB drive.
I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit version: 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 14:05:01 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/541937 Title: Copying files to USB flash drive is extremely slow -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
