kernel 2.6 and mp3 thumbdrive

[Didier Casse]

I just bought a new thumbdrive mp3 player which works well with Windows
and FC1, but in FC2 and the new kernel I get this in "dmesg":

What's the problem with this? i can't seem to connect my thumbdrive at
all. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.


With kind regards,
Didier.
