GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 324953
GNOME and USB storage
Last modified: 2005-12-25 11:17:16 UTC
Distribution: Fedora Core release 4 (Stentz) Package: nautilus Severity: enhancement Version: GNOME2.10.0 2.10.x Gnome-Distributor: Red Hat, Inc Synopsis: GNOME and USB storage Bugzilla-Product: nautilus Bugzilla-Component: general Bugzilla-Version: 2.10.x Description: Please describe your feature request: I'd like to make GNOME more "communicative" about USB storage. I plugged USB pendrive and copied 114 MB of data(photos). Nautilus shown a copying window which disappeared after few seconds. I thought that everithing is OK and clicked on Unmount Device command. I plugged pendrive again and it turned out that majority of "photos" are empty files. Copied files again - nautilus copying progress window already disappeared, but processor load applet shown me that my proccessor is still in big use(95-100%). An "usb-storage" process was still in work. I had to wait and when processor load applet shown 0-5% I unmounted the device. Everything was now OK. So.... Nautilus is cheating in copying window! It is impossible to copy so many files in such a short time! Files are still being copied to the pendrive while the windows has disappeared. I don't know if it's GNOME's fault, maybe it's kernel or usb-storage, but I'm a begginer in Linux stuff so I write to you with that. ------- Bug created by bug-buddy at 2005-12-24 21:07 -------
