I meant to type "high speed" the second time, like I did in the previous
sentence. :)  Anyway, I am trying to use some high speed devices (a
CDRW/DVD drive, specifically) which work at high speed in Fedora Core 1.

- With Fedora Core 1 on the same hardware, I can burn at speeds from 8X
to about 32X.  (Same USB2 adapter card, too.)

- With Fedora Core 3, I make coasters, since the minimum speed of the
drive seems to be 8X.

I plan to bugzilla this once I have time to sit down and capture
some better information, but I was trying to see if anyone else
has had trouble with high speed USB under Fedora Core 3.
