It is not that case,

The same phisical USB, the same phisical machine,. virtual Ubuntu launched under virtualbox shows:

Disk /dev/sdb: 15.6 GB, 15610576896 bytes
119 heads, 55 sectors/track, 4658 cylinders, total 30489408 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0xc3072e18

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdb1   *        8064    30489407    15240672    c  W95 FAT32 (LBA)
root at kubus:~# 

The efect in F18 is repeatable for any usb device inserted to any usb port,so it is definitely not a problem with the partitiion itself
