Title:
  U3 Flash drive hangs Ubuntu when right-click on desktop icon

Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I think the problem is related to how the drive is recognized. In Ubuntu Natty, nautilus recognizes U3 drives as "software" and freezes all system trying to open it. I suggest that the U3 software is not recognized and just is treated as a single USB Flash as it makes the whole system unusable.
  I follow this steps:
   - Insert an U3 Usb flash drive.
   - try o unmount/extract it
   - Ubuntu freezes/slows badly until I remove the drive (just deataching it from the netbook usb port)

  Also Ubuntu freezes in this scenarios:
  1) - Insert an U3 Usb flash drive.
        - right-click on desktop icon.
  2) - Insert an U3 Usb flash drive.
        - Open Places > Computer. Double click on the U3 Drive.
  3) - Insert an U3 Usb flash drive.
        - Double click on the U3 Drive icon on desktop.

  The drive is unusable under Ubuntu even as a standard flash drive, if
  you try to do anything from the desktop icon (right-click, double-
  click) then will freeze nautilus, the gvfs daemon and notification
  modules got 100 cpu usage until the device is removed by deataching it
  from the usb port.

  Under Arch with GNOME 3 this does not happen. The device is just
  recognized as a normal usb flash drive and U3 "system" is ignored
  completely. Did not test it in other Ubuntu versions.

  Thanks in advance.
