Hi, There's a fate entry (#300647, sorry for those who cannot have access to it -- I'm asking if it can be made public) to have the desktop unmount all partitions from USB (& firewire) devices when the computer is suspended because unloading usb-storage would fail. My understanding of all this is... not perfect :-) So here are a few questions and hopefully the replies will help me: + can kernel people tell if this is still a potential issue? + if we need to do this, shouldn't the kernel just do it anyway? (or maybe hal -- it seems weird to me to have all desktops implement this) + what can we do for processes that are using files on those partitions?
