I have a 16 GB 1.0 USB Stick in titanium with leather bound, which i happen to love. I know it works in Vista (of all things) but in Ubuntu 11.04 (i also have gnome 3, if that may affect, but am fairly certain I tried before) it is not detected. I have also run sudo commands in the terminal to search for it and it does not show up, nor when I login as root.
Due to the slow speed I only use it for HTML/CSS/PHP and a backup of Software Setups in case I break something and need to get my setup back without an internet connection.
Toshiba Satellite-Pro L300 1F-J (with upgraded RAM).
3 USB 2.0 Ports, 2 on the left, one on the right, all tested.
$ sudo lsusb
