I am using 2.6.22 kernel version on the device. I use modprobe g_file_storage file='vfat-parition-address' removable=y stall=1 Once the vfat partition is mounted on windows, I just drag and copy the file from windows to the device. This does not happen every single time. It happens at random intervals (maybe once in ten times). The device is not workable until it is reset completely. > Alan Stern > > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
