I have encountered this several times, exactly as you describe. What I know so far is: it's not a kernel problem, it also happens with 2.6.31.x mainline stable.

Well, it did not happen with kernel 2.6.2x ,at least I did not see it... I noticed it with kernel 2.6.3x so it makes me think it has to do with the kernel...

Maybe it's an interaction with dbus. I'm not into dbus that much that I could tell.

Btw: are you using KDE or the Gnome desktop env.?

Yes, I use KDE 4.3.1. But it also happens when I am not logged into KDE. I just upgrade to the latest kernel from HEAD as of today ( kernel- source-2.6.32-19.1.noarch.rpm ) I will see if the issue persists...

Have now tried 2.6.32-rc6 same behaviour. As mentioned, I do not remember having had this issue with 2.6.2x, I have always pulled my USB stuff without unmounting, it started with kernel 2.6.3x to make problems.

Good Morning Guys May i have a question. What about the kernel in Kernel:/linux-next/openSUSE_11.1. Here we find the latest stable Kernel for OpenSUSE 11.1, the 2.6.31 . This one is also used on openSUSE 11.2. I have installed this kernel from Factory (shortly before 11.2 was released), but it was compiled with the compiler from factory, gcc44. So i had to install the gcc44 compiler also, to be ready to install my nvidia driver. This Kernel would be your choise, if it would be possible to install it. Unfortunately it is not , because of an fault in the spec file of the kernel-default package. You can not install the kernel-default-base package, because in the spec is written that this package would be providet by kernel-default, instead of is required by kernel-default. So, if we wanne have the latest stable Kernel, we have to asked to rebuild this packages after fixing the spec. I did so yesterday by email, but till now whithout response (it's WE) If you wanne have the latest stable kernel too, instead of the latest testing kernel, it would be nice if you could put a bugzilla entry, so i'm not the only one who is asking for fixing this. Here is the entry from the spec %if %split_base Provides: kernel-base = %version-%source_rel this has to change to %if %split_base Requires: kernel-base = %version-%source_rel Greets Michael -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I have never used any opensuse kernel to anything but installation. Never ever. I'm used to build my kernel from the sources on kernel.org.

Good for you ;-) Michael -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Why?

I'm hacking a little bit on the linux kernel in my spare time and find it quite annoying to do this using anything else than the kernel I'm just hacking on. Besides, there's some patches in the opensuse modified kernel I don't like.

The last valid reason to do that sort of thing passed somewhere around 1987.

What reason is it you're talking about here? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I take this back, You can install the kernel without the base package, and it's running whit no problems, only appamor modul can not be loadet, i don't know why yet. But you can install your nvidia driver, if so, and you do not have any trouble whit USB Storage.

http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/56265/ So it seems to be a kernel issue.

I have now read the whole thread and done some testing. You're right, this is not an isolated 2.6.32 bug. 2.6.32-rc7 (from the actual git repository) compiles in the background, I'll report back to you if the problem is fixed. I looked into the source, the patch discussed on lkml on this topic is already merged, with a minor modification. I'll compile two variants of rc7 now, one "stock git" and one with an additional one line modification, which I think is still missing. Stay tuned :-) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

After looking at the source and some testing, I can now confirm that the problem is fixed for me in 2.6.32-rc7.

I would suggest you upgrade to this version, alternatively you could mail your actual kernel version to me via pm, and I'll backport the patch for you.

No need, i just get -rc7. Regards Malte -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
