After Unmount/Sync Of USB Drives FS Messed Up Needs Check In Windows #466

Closed ghost closed 9 years ago

ghost commented 10 years ago

Specs SpaceFM 0.9.4 udevil-0.4.3

I can't remember when I saw this reported, but I also see the same problem, when I unmount and sync a usb drive, then plug it back in at some point in time later when using Windows 7, Windows will complain that there is a problem with the drive and it needs to be checked.

Then it will come back saying after the check it found problems and corrected them.

Using SpaceFM daily I typically see this problem every 7-14 days, on average.

This has happend on two different distros and with around 4-5 different usb drives.

Everytime I run into this problem I later test the drives over several times in Windows, but I never run into this issue in Windows. I've also tried different file mangers, Natilus, PCMan, Thunar, and I've never had any problems with them. This only occurs with SpaceFM.

Not reproducible, and nothing here to indicate a problem in SpaceFM or udevil. SpaceFM simply writes and closes the files. It then runs udevil to unmount, which simply runs umount, and sync is literally a sync command. You can see these commands being issued by running SpaceFM in a terminal. So any problems encountered with the fs are in the system.
