Thread: Ubuntu freezes when ejecting USB devices
hi there,
i'm running ubuntu 11.04 , has been running smoothly thusfar (despite unity niggles here , there). have, been running bit of problem following update.
whenever eject (safely remove) usb device machine, ubuntu freezes. i can't out of freeze except hard shutdown/restart , it happens every single time safely remove or eject usb device laptop.when crashes, capslock indicator light starts blinking , reason laptop starts heating because fan starts running higher , higher if i'm running resource hungry application. (i'm pretty sure heat has caused battery damage laptop less year old , after issue started happening ubuntu has started giving me warnings battery capacity down 40% , battery might damaged, that's story).
suggestions appreciated.
cheers
for battery damage, remove battery when i'm not carrying computer around. might want when testing prevent further damage.
test, press ctrl+alt+f1 when it. hope see terminal , can log in. run command
to see causing trouble. kill pressing 'k' , enter pidcode:top
