That is because the "umass" device driver is still under the USB emulation layer of the old USB API, which is depreciated, and will be removed once I have completed the conversion of all USB device drivers. This will most likely happen before the end of this month. Then I need some help testing all the rewritten USB device drivers. --HPS
