I fail to see any reason or purpose for a "umount" function.
Its the Eject that is needed.
Eject under Windows 7 and Gnome Nautilus works. Unmount does not really do anything but flush to disk and close files. The unit still thinks its connected when you use unmount.
Yep, just talked to our USB guys, and eject and umount are two separate operations. It seems that Nautilus: 'Eject' == umount, eject Windows: 'Safely Remove == umount, eject KDE: 'Safely Remove' == umount
My Garmin Edge shows the battery level after having been 'Safely Removed' under windows, but still shows the 'PC connected' display after doing so in KDE. I'll investigate adding an eject to KDE.
Thank you all for your answers. If " KDE: 'Safely Remove' == umount", why is the drive's icon removed from the desktop after 'safely remove' action? It makes it impossible to mount the drive again without physically un- and replugging it. The icon should stay on the desktop and indicate the drive's unmounted state similar to CD/DVD icons. Is it possible to make such an icon, how? I am using KDE 3.5. Thanks, Istvan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
