 Re: "safely remove" usb thumb drivesI use Places because I almost always have a Dolphin window open and it's closer for me. If not then the Device Notifier works fine.
And I'd hate to choose between the two of you as to which screenshot was more informative/artistic, bigger, or better presented. _________________ "There is no "slippery slope" toward loss of liberties, only a long staircase where each step downward must first be tolerated by the American people and their leaders."

Re: "safely remove" usb thumb drives Just to avoid misleading anyone - the 'safely remove' on right click only appears if the thumb drive is mounted. When first plugged in, it shows up in Dolphin but is unmounted and right clicking doesn't mount it.
(This is information for the awkward squad - I can't believe anyone would try 'safely remove' an unmounted drive.) Phil _________________ Asus M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3, Phenom II X2 550 BE (now X3), 8GB. 120GB Corsair SSD, ITB Samsung HDD, Mepis 11.9.70-64. |

Re: "safely remove" usb thumb drives
That's my "work" thumb drive. A lot of that stuff is what I need when I set up a new machine. Been carrying it around my neck for a long time. It's my geek amulet. _________________ Asus M4A87TD USB3 AMD 870 Socket AM3 Athlon II X4 630 2.8GHz Quad Core GeForce 9500 GT 1GB PCIe, nVidia TwinView Kingston 2G x 2 1333 DDR3 WD Caviar 500GB x 2 SATA hdd |

Re: "safely remove" usb thumb drives
For mounting it you just click on the drive (in the Places section). _________________ "There is no "slippery slope" toward loss of liberties, only a long staircase where each step downward must first be tolerated by the American people and their leaders." Alan K. Simpson |
