My F8 system has two USB ports in the front side. I had a USB DVDRW connected to one of the ports and was writing an ISO image to CDR. Then I plugged in a USB stick to transfer some files from it to my desktop, the transfer was stalling and was slow even after the CDR task ended. Then I unplugged the DVDRW and the USB stick transfer rate was as fast as lightning. Why was the USB stick file transfer so slow when the DVDRW was plugged in? ~af -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
