[Bug 504440] Re: sd card "safely remove drive" kills reader device

 

Would be nice to see a fix to this, if I'm copying data from a few
memory cards I have to reboot between each one because the whole card
reader is disconnected rather than just the media in the drive.  (Card
reader using m-board USB, 11.10).

Title:
  sd card "safely remove drive" kills reader device

Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gvfs

  Ubunto 9.10 on amd64
  I mount an sd card in my internal media reader. All works normally until I do "safely remove drive" which unmounts the drive but also kills the media reader. The light gos out on media reader and no  other sd cards will work until reboot. Drive worked fine until last couple of weeks. 
  lsusb reports the media reader is 
  Bus 002 Device 002: ID 058f:6362 Alcor Micro Corp. Hi-Speed 21-in-1 Flash Card Reader/Writer (Internal/External)
  If I open a terminal and umount /media/disk the drive still is available for the next sd card.
