Just installed the latest updates to Hardy on a Sony Vaio VGN-A270P. The problem with USB devices continues. I have a 250G drive connected via USB. I attempted to copy about 100G to that drive. It ran for 10 or 20 minutes then the OS locked up as it had before (e.g., pressing Caps-Lock does not light the caps-lock LED, ctrl-alt-del has no effect, no mouse). The fixes, if any, in the newest Ubuntu updates did not fix the problem.
