Hi there!

When I connect an external harddisk/cdrom/memory-stick via USB, a new scsi 
device appears, lets say /dev/sda, partition information is read correctly 
and I can mount and use partitions without any problem.

After unmounting all mounted partitions of the drive and disconnecting it, 
the device /dev/sda is still there, of course giving me i/o-Errors when 
accessing it. 

Even after connecting a different disk, /proc/scsi/scsi still holds 
information about the old disk, no new disk. Accessing the new disk is not 
possible, I have to restart the hotplug to make it work.

So, question is, is there anything I can do against it or is it just a nasty 
bug in hotplug/usb?
BTW: I just upgraded to hotplug-20030805-r2 and restartet the service.

Thanks,
        Alex
