I have one (small capacity) USB stick where the LED flashes continually
once it has been mounted. Yet it seems OK in use. So it may not be a fault
in some terms, but is quite irritating as it doesn't tell you what you'd
want to know!

BTW since I have written the above I'll risk asking what I guess is a daft
question that shows my ignorance...

I can mount/use/dismount memory sticks, etc, via them appearing in the
'media' directory I've put onto the panel. This seems fine to me. So I have
been wondering whilst reading this thread - what are the advantages of the
new applet?

Slainte,

Jim
