@Anakin Starkiller: I tested with the latest available kernel for Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS. This is a supported release until April 2013 according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases .
(1) How would a newer kernel know that a device is lying about whether it is removable or not?
(2) Is there reason to believe it is fixed in 2.6.32-28-generic ?
(3) Are you aware of a newer kernel I should be using with this release of Ubuntu, that may solve this issue?
I'm not eager to upgrade a stable working machine just to test this, but I'm interested to know where any such "newer kernel" might be found.
