Without actually thinking through the numbers, my first guess would be that it's a usb 2.0 device, and you only have usb 1.1 enabled in your kernel. Does that seem possible? You might install the usbview package and see what it says about transfer speeds. -- monique PLEASE don't CC me. Please. Pretty please with sugar on top. Whatever it takes, just don't CC me!
