Greg2 Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 (edited) Welcome to the board! We need more info to help you. What version of Linux, and what release are you using? How do you mount the flash drive? How are you trying to safely remove the flash drive? Edited March 5, 2008 by Greg2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulSe Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 Have you checked that all processes associated with KWrite are actually dead? There might be some background process hogging the file. Kill it and see if that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kde Posted March 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Thanks All,.. I'am new in linux and using Mandriva One 2008.0 as main OS kernel 2.6.4 I just plug my Flash disk and double klik .txt file, Kwrite run and open that file After that I close KWrite, But when I safely remove the flash dish, there is spome error like Unfortunately, the device system:/media/sdb1 (/dev/sdb1) named 'NAJMUN' and currently mounted at /media/NAJMUN could not be unmounted. Unmounting failed due to the following error: Device is Busy: Moreover, programs still using the device have been detected. They are listed below. You have to close them or change their working directory before attempting to unmount the device again. USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /media/NAJMUN: admin 7649 ....m kio_thumbnail tis error occure when open (double Klik)some type of file like .txt .htm .jpg .png and .ttf but in some type of file like .pdf and .doc this error doesn't occur. @greg2 after I plug my Flash Disk, it automaticcally appear in storage device...

Greg2 Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 /media/NAJMUN could not be unmounted This looks like an old KDE bug with .ttf file thumbnails. AFAIK, it was fixed over a year ago. Is the name of your flash drive NAJMUN? :huh: Please open a terminal (with the drive attached) and post the output of mount does this output show the drive attached at /media/disk or /media/NAJMUN? Now try to safely remove the disk, and when it fails; Please post the output of /sbin/fuser -v /media/disk/* Alternatively, if the disk is attached at /media/NAJMUN, post the output of /sbin/fuser -v /media/NAJMUN/* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarecrow Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 ...plus, it's more than certain that your kernel isn't 2.6.4... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg2 Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 /sbin/fuser -v /media/NAJMUN/* does not give any output. That's good! It means that no system processes were being used by or on any files on your drive. I'm not sure what caused your problem, but it's OK now.
