I'm running a GNOME desktop on a Debian Sid system. I've noticed that if I right-click a USB memory stick icon on the desktop and choose "Unmount Volume" the icon disappears immediately. However the device may be busy in the background, and if I remove the stick too early files copied to the stick may not "have arrived yet" (the sync isn't done yet).
I've found two ways around it: 1. Unmount in a shell using `pumount'. 2. Keep a system monitor in the panel and have it show disk activity. Is there any other way? I'd kind of like a brief notification at the end informing me that the device is fully unmounted. /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://therning.org/magnus Software is not manufactured, it is something you write and publish.
