Ok, I am definitely losing data when using the simple bash commands su umount /media/WD from the shell. I'll try experimenting with the scripts above and see if I can rectify this lost data situation on Ubuntu with the Western Digital Passport External Hard Drives. By default, installing Ubuntu did not have sdparm installed but I found it online and installed it. From what I've read, I also have to add users to the plugdev group to use the pumount command. If anyone knows how to repair the right click graphical icon eject feature for Ubuntu's Graphical Display Manager (GDM) that information would be appreciated.
Thanks. -- not proper dismounting for WD passport harddrive (making noise when unplug) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
