Hi all;
I have 2 devices that I use often.
1. a 1Gig memory stick via a usb emory stick reader
2. a 40Gig Firelight USB2 exterenal hard drive
both devices are immediately recognized and have no problems with
usage. However much of the time I cannot unmount the device. I get a
message that says the device is busy. I have no windows open which
are "in" the device directory.
Any ideas?
Probably "/usr/libexec/gam_server" has grabbed a directory on the
device. Run the command "lsof" to see what process has which files open.
I did "chmod 000 /usr/libexec/gam_server" to make it go away.
