Well I may be misleading you. I had to do some removal of software when
I originally bought the device. It would not load on Fedora so I removed
some software under XP. Then it would appear in Fedora but still had
some U3 stiff remaining. That is what I removed on my Fedora machine.
Sorry I forgot what I had done originally.
