Bug ID: 402096 Summary: Removing memory card causes device to disappear from the system. Product: plasmashell Version: master Platform: Fedora RPMs OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: Device Notifier Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org Reporter: x...@x-s.com.pl Target Milestone: 1.0 SUMMARY Removing memory card via device notifier/Dolphin causes card reader device disappear from the system, thus card reader cannot be used again untill reboot/usb port reset/physical reconnection of the device (hard do to when device is build in into your computer/laptop ;)). On system with card-reader STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Insert memory into the reader. 2. Mount it and browse its content 3. Remove card via device notifier/nontext menu of card in file browser:places OBSERVED RESULT Memory card disappears from the device notifier/filebrowser:places Card reader dissapears from list of usb devices (lsusb output) There's no reaction if card is removed/inserted again. EXPECTED RESULT Memory card disapears from device notifier/filebrowser:places or goes to unmouned state. lsusb still lists Card reader Device notifier reacts to card reinsertion. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 29 KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.52 Qt Version: 5.11.1 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I guess it happens because action used to do so is 'safe removal' that powers down the device. So I suppose 'eject' action should be used instead output of lsusb before card is safely removed: Bus 002 Device 003: ID 8087:07da Intel Corp. Bus 002 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp.
