           Summary: Sometimes stale entries in /media remain and cause
                    problems when remounting the same device
           Product: openSUSE 11.0
           Version: Factory
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: Hotplug
        AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: one_way@xxxxxxxxx
         QAContact: qa@xxxxxxx
          Found By: ---


Under certain conditions the mounting points/drawers in "/media" for removable
media are not removed. If I then insert the same removable medium once again,
HAL (or which component is responsible) creates another dir with appended "-1".

E.g. my ipod is usually mounted in "/media/IPOD". Sometimes this drawer already
exists and therefore HAL has to create "/media/IPOD-1" (making Amarok stumble).

The stale drawers have to be removed by hand.

This mostly happens after some kinds of "unclean" shutdown while the device is
still mounted (playing with suspend/resume, or sometimes after certain factory
updates the computer simply doesn't react to "reboot").

Maybe the "/media"-drawer should be kind of cleaned up when HAL intializes?
