Check to be sure you don't have any files open on the device, no file
browsers open to a directory on it, and no xterm sessions with a
current working directory on it.

Have you checked the "Working devices list" at
http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/ to see if there are any known problems
with it?

Also, 2.6 kernels (FC2) have problems with USB where later 2.4 did
not. Have you tried your device with a recent 2.4 kernel?

This is an unusual USB key device. I thought most, if not all, USB key
devices were non-volatile RAM and required no battery.
