(Get the code!)
I have been following this post for some time.
I have installed Debian Lenny and started using that as a primary system
and the Ubuntu system I have I tinker with.
Call me a rebel or such.. but I have noticed differences on how the
systems' (Ubuntu and Debian) handle file transfers.
I am not a super geek and can't devote a lot of time to tracking down
the differences.
One thing I have noticed is that Ubuntu does not write some of the
configuration files for USB devices. . .or that some of the utilities
required to read the USB information can't retrieve anything because the
required files do not exist. there are increasing wait periods or data
written/read from a USB device, something in the wait states. . .
someone with more technical familiarity needs to look at these.
As far as I can see there are several issues, but without some help or
guidance I can't give more information. Most people from what I see are
quoting the same fixes over and over; it is or has become a circular
enigma. Specific data has to be collected from a range of systems in a
specific order and collated/sorted through.
Shawn.
