It is NOT working correctly. It does unmount a thumb drive but DOES NOT POWER IT OFF. I know because my thumb drives have a power LED, after 'Safely' removing, or unmounting, the LED is still on. "Safely" remove works correctly in Windoze because it removes *power* from the port. Q> You received this bug notification because you are subscribed to the bug Q> report.
