I use usb storage driver, with ehci and ohci support and scsi driver... I don't use Low Performance USB Block Driver, i never use it. i acces through "/dev/usb/usbdrive" hand made udev link :-), but this is only symlink to "sd?" When i mount by hand without sync my flash work as usual but it start writing on umnount command, this is not what i want... Also i use hald with kdemedia kioslave, by default it uses "sync" option. -- Michal Kurgan -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
