I was going to report this, but as far as I know it is not a big deal and it is
hardware dependent.
I have tested it in three computers till know (HP Pavillion tx2532la, Dell
Gateway MX6009m, and one I assembled in 2006) and the I got the following:
there is an eject button in the device notifier and in the sysinfo:\ KIO slave
for each USB/SD/MS connected that appears when the mouse reaches each device
icon. And your are right that there are the two scenarios you have previously
described. But there is a fake third.
I have jump from openSuSE 10.2 and the expected behavior of the mount system
was that, when umounted the device, it lit off. So it is the same under
openSuSE 11.2... in the HP only. In the Dell or in the PC assembled the device
light never turns off. So, my wife (Dell) was worry because she didn't know
whether the device was safely to be removed. (In fact, I myself noticed very
lately that the device notifier turned into a checkmark for a few seconds.)
Besides of that, the device it self was still named in the device manager
although the eject symbol was no longer present in the device notifier when the
mouse reached it, so my wife was puzzled. Thus, I opened Konsole and order
mount to see which devices were and were not mounted, and the USB were not. So
it was safely to removed the device.
However:
1) it never occurred under SuSE 10.2;
2) it has never occur in the HP.
So, it is a SuSE 11.2 issue and it might be hardware dependent.
Check whether it is what happens to Dmitriy Styazhkin, and remember (cf.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=551753#c2) that there are some
(new) users of Linux that they don't know nothing about mounting, mount, and so
on. What I mean: even not been a great problem these issues have to be amended.
I'll attach my assembled PC's hwinfo for you to check it.
