It doesn't surprise me. There is only a small number of devices that work
with 2.4.22 and fail with 2.6.0 -- as you would expect!
I forgot to mention before something else you can try. I don't know if it
will help. Probably not, but it's worth a try.
You will have to manually edit the file drivers/usb/storage/scsiglue.c in
your kernel source. Around about line 320 in the file you may or may not
see a line that says
.max_sectors = 240,
If it's there, try changing the 240 to 120. If it's not there, try adding
.max_sectors = 120,
after the line that says
.sg_tablesize = SG_ALL,
This will reduce the amount of data that Linux sends to your drive at any
one time, down to a maximum of 60 KB. Like I said, it probably won't
help, but just in case your device has trouble dealing with larger
transfers you should try it.
