I used to think esata is hotplug, but this thread made me wonder:

Well, it confirms the cable hotplug, i.e., you can connect and disconnect devices and the kernel will realize that something has changed. Mounting/unmounting is a diferent thing. That doesn't work for USB either (i.e., you do have to umount before you remove it).
I don't use any esata, but is it possible that the plugging/unplugging is not considered a "hot" event, whereas plugging/unplugging a drive is?
It looks like. But this definitely has changed, as it did generate an event in 11.4 where things worked flawlessly. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
