Yes, as modules. The drive works fine in OS X and XP. I also have
another thumb drive that does work on this linux box. This sony one is
just bunk. Although the usb-storage driver homepage lists it as
supported and the driver seems to load.

I thought that was the common case. Unless you hack it and custom
partition it. If you look at the syslog messages in the previous post,
it shows it's trying to attach as /dev/sdb. It just never gets there in
the end.
