I've rebooted and I'm using now the old 3.8.0-27 kernel. Everything works again, as expected. I've created some report files, I'm attaching them so anyone can compare their content with the content of the files that I've already reported (that were made when the 3.8.0-29 kernel was used and so the errors appeared).

I rebooted and chose the 3.8.0-27 kernel, then both usb memories were detected. I rebooted and chose the 3.8.0-29 kernel again, then both usb memories were *not* detected. I rebooted and chose the 3.8.0-27 kernel, then both usb memories were detected.
