Sure, look in /etc/hal's configuration files, there already is example configuration (commented out) for implementing sync policy on removable devices.
Personally, I think it's a better workaround for the time being to educate users to issue a "sync" command at the terminal after unmounting, and waiting for that command to return before yanking out any media. This allows users to keep enjoying the apparently faster write speed and only inconveniences the user at unmount time. -- [Edgy Data Loss] umount progress dialog missing https://launchpad.net/bugs/61946 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
