yes this is always something that breaks, i think its more or less to not
support motherboards bios to handle onboard usb hardware that is missing more
or less, if one ignore bios in linux kernel is might work if the hardware does
do the right ting anyway

point here is that usb 3.x can sometimes solve problems on usb 1.x 2.x :)

so far i have not seen it personly but frinds tell me this

this is pretty much just an cfcard or big microsd ? :=)

when i moved some of my microsd around on my phones i found that the old nokia
e51 DOO work with 32G microsd, wow, and the store i got a microsd in sayed it
could just use 2G, hmm

i think you have all your films on netflix ? :)

or never got anything from usenet that is big, my qnap is just a sabnzbd
mostly, and some qnap software use transmission bittorrent, all in all i am
happy with it :)

and now i created ebuild for makenl 3.3.1 in fidonet overlay, hope all the
gentoo/funtoo will complain why it took so long to make it ? :=)


 Regards Benny
