I tested with Hardy and there was no difference (the last version I used that this wasn't a problem was Dapper, I haven't tested Edgy).
Any small file (I'm presuming any file less than the memory buffer size on the disk) is still getting lost. I just tried the following on Hardy: - I created a file on my Gnome desktop called foo.txt. - I opened the file and typed: "test" and saved the file. - I plugged my WD drive into the machine and copied the file to the drive. - I right clicked the drive icon and selected "Unmount Drive". - Unlike the older Gnome desktops, there was no message about writing to the drive, nor was there any message about being able to safely unplug. - After 30 seconds (just to be sure!), I disconnected the drive. - I then plugged the drive back in and sure enough, the file was gone! I'm a little concerned at the low response to this, as it is a serious isssue that involves DATA LOSS! I am available at ANY time to assist with this. Best Regards, Chris Fletcher.
