Bug Description
if i accidentally remove my external usb drive without unmounting it first, Ubuntu never responds by unmounting it and the icon stays on my desktop. Therefore when i remount the drive, i then have 2 on my desktop by the same name. Before a message would come up about unsafe removal and the drive would be removed, but this is no longer happening.
Ubuntu 8.04

Hi!
You MUST unmount your flash drives with eject or unmount, it appears when you do a right click in the icon of your drive. If you dont do it, you pendrive and your USB port can get "burn" and get useless. Your computer will still thinking that your usb drive is connected and the icon will not disappear.
Bye
