USB 2.0 problems on suse 10.0

When i was using my usb 2 stick to backup some data, i noticed that transfer rates were very low. Turns out this is a problem that other people are having too who use suse 10.0

see: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=105871

This bug does not appear in 9.3. I dunno about 10.1 alpha. I sure hope it gets fixed soon. There is a fix mentioned in the bugzilla about mounting without sync, but i'd rather not hack suse if its not necessary and wait for Novell to come up with a proper solution.
