Maybe the problem is specific to a certain USB device? Or the controller on your motherboard? Or both combined?

Red Hat doesn't have the resources to test all the combinations of ppc/i386/x86_64 hardware possible. Instead, they rely on people like you to report bugs when they occur.

Fedora Core 6 common issues

It has already been reported... over two months ago. And no, it is not specific to a particlar device. It can be reproduced with any drive.

I stopped bothering to report bugs to Fedora's bugzilla since my reports were often ignored, passed upstream because the person it was assigned to didn't have time to worry about it, or declared not important enough to worry about, or had a fix implemented... in FCx+1.

I do report bugs to distros whose devs act like they care, though.
