Public bug reported: With kernel 2.6.22-14-generic a SanDisk Titanium (4GB) USB stick is detected properly; a Prolific (128MB) USB stick is NOT (although it had been with previous Ubuntu versions): The Prolific stick cannot be (manually) mounted and it is not listed by "fdisk -l". However, a simple loading (or removing) of ehci_hcd causes perfect automounting of the stick. Here, the excerpt from kern.log from a scenario of (1) inserting the stick without proper detection, (2) executing "modprobe -r ehci_hcd" resulting in proper detection and automounting, (3) unmounting and removel of the stick, (4) second insertion of the stick again without proper detection, and (5) executing "modprobe ehci_hcd" resulting again in detection and automounting.
