I've had this problem for more than a year but usually it only bothers mefor a moment
and I move on. Today it was a bigger annoyance when I was trying to diagnose a problem
with a flash drive.
When I mount the device my clicking on mount on the desktop icon that pops up when it is
plugged init then takes 2 minutes, I timed it today, to release after clicking on unmount.
I would like to reduce that to something reasonable likeimmediately or no more than a few
seconds.
This is with xfce and lightdm on Fedora 27, but it has been doing this for several
versions of Fedora. I use the flash drive to save audio books, keep reusing the same
device and only see the problem when I save a new audio book, perhaps once a week, so I
just accept it ...
Any thoughts appreciated,
In case it helps: I have the same issue where umounting (or ejecting) a USB drive from
the
"filesystem" GUI takes a very long time. Actually, it seems to kill the WM which
then
restarts after a while.
This is the case even when very little was written to the drive.
I am of f26, using XFCE.
