** Description changed: - USB 6.06.1, x86, 2.6.15-26-k7 + Ubuntu 6.06.1, x86, 2.6.15-26-k7 I have noticed difference between behavior of my USB flash disk in Windows (W2k) and Ubuntu. I tried four different USB disks, two of them were USB20, and the result is the same. All my USB disks has some LED indicator, one disk has LED with two colours to indicate read/write access. LED inidicator is activeted when disk is pluged to USB port and in many cases it blinks when USB disk is read/written. When I do "remove" in Windows, I receive message like "It is safe to remove your USB disk from the system now". And LED indicator on the USB flash disk is switch off. I like that LED indicator is switch off. It is very useful in the case you have several USB disks connected to your system in the same time. When you see that LED is switch off, you know that it is safe to remove USB disk. When I do umount in Ubuntu (or eject in Gnome), LED inidicator on USB is still power on. That is not good, as there is no indication on the USB flash disk that it is safe to remove. My guess is that this behavoir is more kernel related than Ubuntu/GNOME related.
