I just got a cruzer-256 too and it doesn't work with Fedora stock kernel or the updated kernel (2.4.22-1.2135.nptl). Has anyone figured out how to patch this to work? Also - I find it disturbing that the patch would require a kernel recompile. Isn't there any facility in Linux that will allow regular users to add drivers easily? This is a major set back for desktop usability otherwise.
