on shout down the same happens when you mount stuff over openvpn... because first openvpn gets closed before it tries to unmount networked drives. On Kubuntu openvpn also comes with down-root plugin.
So I just enhanced my ovpn config with this: plugin /usr/lib/openvpn/openvpn-plugin-down-root.so 'umount -f /mnt/xxxxx' At least on shutting down my notebook I don't have to wait those 180 seconds anymore. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/406154 Title: [karmic] plasma panel freezes for a few seconds when opening a usb drive To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/kde-baseapps/+bug/406154/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
