Really? Please correct med if I'm wrong. I assume you are talking about the test in hald/linux/blockdev.c which sets storage.removable.support_async_notification based on the flags exported by the kernel in /sys/block/*/capability? I cannot see how this can work at the moment. There doesn't seem to be any driver setting the GENHD_FL_MEDIA_CHANGE_NOTIFY flag yet. Or am I missing something?
