Comment 54 for bug 500069

Wow, this sucks. I too am having the same problem with mint 9x64. How is it that such basic, basic functions can be handled so badly? Ubuntu now sucks and it seems that Mint is no better. Taking over 2 hours to transfer 7.3gigs to a 8gig stick (fat32). USB2 not USB1. What is up? Will we ever have a OS that just works? Sh%^ I'm about to go buy Win 7 or start beta testing Win8 to find a system that can do BASIC FUNCTIONS, IE: open files, manipulate them and move and transfer to different hard drives.
TRANSFERRING AT THE BLAZING SPEED OF 930 KB/SEC.
1TB TRANSFER TO NEW WD 1TB 2.5" USB DRIVE TOOK OVER 19HRS!
WAY TO GO PROGRAMMERS! REALLY YOU SHOULD BE PROUD.
