It is Feb 21, 2013, and I am still experiencing this on my system (Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS 3.2.0-37-generic #58-Ubuntu SMP kernel x86_64). Like the others, I have tried several USB sticks. I do find the GParted solution works for me. In my case, after formatting, I also used GParted to mark the new

I have the same problem. Although I am new to python, I'll help out. Here are some oddities that I've noticed in an hour of debugging with ddd/gdb: 1) A bunch of QCoreApplication::exec: The event loop is already running warnings, although not an infinite loop. Maybe not a problem. 2)

Same problem experienced here on Ubuntu 10.04 Attached is .usbcreator.log file. I deleted the file prior to running usb-creator so this should only be for the relevant session. The intended device/partition was formated to fat32 using gparted immediately before running usb-creator. It is an
