Knowing you want to use Thunar, and arriving late in this thread, you may
happily press D if this has been discussed...
What happens if you issue "umount /mountpoint" from a vt, rather than clicking
"eject" in Thunar?
Also, hard drives attached via USB give fuzzy results at best. After years of
trying many different things/software in Gentoo, now I just hang a serial
cable out of my workstation, and an external power adapter close. STILL there
are times when it's not behaving properly.
Cheers,
Bruce
