[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#398809: hal: doesnt eject removable USB devices on unmount

[Sam Morris]

Hi Xavier,

Do you know if the current version of HAL still has this problem? I
suspect it doesn't because for quite some time now, when ejecting a USB
disk in Nautilus, there has been a pop-up saying "don't remove the
device yet, it's not safe!" that goes away once data has been flushed to
the device.

Do you have any references about the correct way to safely remove USB
devices on Linux?
