Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: kdebase
Using "safely remove" on a usb memory stick causes the desktop icon to
disappear immediately, without waiting for any cached writes to
complete.
I have observed this behaviour in both edgy and dapper with kde-355,
with two different memory sticks.
kde-353 used to show a progress bar while flushing the cached writes.
This was still less than ideal because the progress bar stuck at 0% then
jumped to 100% once writing was complete, but at least you knew when it
was safe to remove the device.
** Affects: kdebase (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
