USB hangs/crashes with USB mouse+key drive

Hello, everyone:

I've been observing this behavior since kernel >1.322. I have a USB 
optical mouse (Logitech) and a keydrive that is a simple usb-storage 
device. Since test2 and up to kernel 1.322 I could both use my mouse and 
mount the key drive, but USB stack would crash when closing the X 
session (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=119231).

This seems to have been fixed some time after 1.322, but ever since then 
I cannot both use my USB mouse and mount the usb-storage. If I try to 
mount it, it will try for about 3 minutes, and then my mouse will stop 
working. The mount process never seems to die (looks like 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=107248).

I've seen this happen on two different motherboards, and I know that the 
keydrive works, because I can access it in fc1, so it doesn't look like 
this is a hardware issue.

Can anyone else try this? If you have a USB mouse and a pen drive, try 
to use them both and see if you have any luck.

Regards,
