Did you actually eject or dismount the USB device (via the umount or
eject commands or desktop options) or did you simply unplug it?
I tried both. I
even turned the machine off, but it still keep in
memory the passphrase somewhere.
If you
unmounted or ejected it, I'd imagine you'd be asked for the
passphrase
the next time you mounted it. If it doesn't ask, then yeah, we have an
issue--nothing having to do with that device should be cached.
I would agree.
If all you did was unplug it, then the filesystem was never closed,
the
system never saw it as unmounted and the current mount is still valid.
If that is the case, you're lucky it wasn't corrupted (you must have
waited long enough between write operations for changes to be flushed
to the device).
I did not use the partition while it was plugged and mounted.
