I didn't use USB at the time, it was really running a Maemo Mapper download via WLAN which caused the problem. Sometimes the app also got stuck and there were kernel messages about the MMC card; seems like I need to investigate a bit more to provide a proper report. In the meantime I also saw the "memory corruption during WLAN" bug (https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2006).

I know, I just wondered whether filing a bug for the 770 kernel anywhere else would get the necessary attention. I take your statement as an encouragement to file a bug report in the normal bugs.maemo.org... -- Bye, Patrick Ohly -- Patrick.Ohly at gmx.de http://www.estamos.de/
