Note this is completely unrelated from my previous email - different hardware, different issue. This is on a Thinkpad X200s. With 2.6.29-rc2 I can no longer access USB sticks. Other USB storage still works (e.g., a SATA drive connected via USB/SATA adapter).

Always the same situation. The stick is found and recognized by the kernel but then can't be accessed.
