Hi, Petter asked me to add this information, even though I do not fully understand the finer details of this bug report.
udevadm can help simulate the plug/unplug events without actually doing that physically. These commands trigger KDE's media manager to show/hide the sdc1 block device, a usb stick, on my normal system (not Debian-edu/ltspfs): /sbin/udevadm trigger --action=remove --subsystem-match=block --sysname-match=sdc1 /sbin/udevadm trigger --action=add --subsystem-match=block --sysname-match=sdc1 You can also use 'udevadm monitor' to look at what udev is thinking about as you unplug/plug removable devices.
