Every time I connect my SanDisk 12 in 1 USB flash reader or disconnect
it, I get many stuck hotplug processes that I must kill.

About 30 processes get stuck on each connect and disconnect.

I use the flash memory on a KVM switch, and it is very annoying.  Also,
the hotplug autodetect doesn't work for the flash memory, but I can
manually mount it.

Does removing the "hal" package help? I found that hotplug+hal is a very
unsafe combination in Debian stable.

You are right.  It is hal+hotplug.  I had to remove the package "gnome" which
includes gnome desktop. I don't see a bug report for this in hal or hotplug.
