You could have a look at the logs, e.g. CTRL+ALT+F10 to see the last entries
of /var/log/warn. You get back by pressing ALT+F7.

You mean the hardware supplier who is not willing to supply a proper
Linux-driver for the hardware you bought? I wonder if you could make the
stick work without a supplied driver using any other OS. So as you will
notice, it is not LINUX that is responsible for the lack of drivers and the
resulting trouble, but the hardware manufacturer. You should complain that
you did not get proper drivers for your OS, although you paid the same
price for the stick as the owner of another OS. That's the real trouble.
