Public bug reported:
I think the problem is related to how the drive is recognized. In Ubuntu Natty,
nautilus recognizes U3 drives as "software" and freezes all system trying to
open it. I suggest that the U3 software is not recognized and just is treated
as a single USB Flash as it makes the whole system unusable.
I follow this steps:
- Insert an U3 Usb flash drive.
- try o unmount/extract it
- Ubuntu freezes/slows badly until I remove the drive (just deataching it from
the netbook usb port)
Also Ubuntu freezes in this scenarios:
1) - Insert an U3 Usb flash drive.
- right-click on desktop icon.
2) - Insert an U3 Usb flash drive.
- Open Places > Computer. Double click on the U3 Drive.
3) - Insert an U3 Usb flash drive.
- Double click on the U3 Drive icon on desktop.
The drive is unusable under Ubuntu even as a standard flash drive, if
you try to do anything from the desktop icon (right-click, double-click)
then will freeze nautilus, the gvfs daemon and notification modules got
100 cpu usage until the device is removed by deataching it from the usb
port.
Under Arch with GNOME 3 this does not happen. The device is just
recognized as a normal usb flash drive and U3 "system" is ignored
completely. Did not test it in other Ubuntu versions.
Thanks in advance.
