Hi all,
I ran into a bug, when I unmount a USB flash drive (it seems to be this specific drive) I get a kernel oops. Here is the relevant section of /var/log/messages, though the bit pasted in below is probably the relevant one: http://pastebin.com/USxybPMv

I am using KDE 4.9.3, and mounting and unmounting the drive via the 'removable disks' plasmid thingy.
Any other information you guys need? It's not a huge problem since it seems to be restricted to this drive and only happens occasionally, but this seems like it could be important...

The disk was still being written to when you unmounted it. Your Virtual File Server did what it said it would do, waited 5 seconds and crashed...
It's being written to only by one or all of the modules linked in
Nouveau is the module for the new Open Source video driver for nvidia
TTM is the module for translation-table maps which is a way of managing memory for Graphics Cards.
DRM_KMS_Helper is the module for Digital Rendering Mode_Kernel Mode Setting - this allows graphics cards to swap resolutions easier on the fly in the console.
hid_logitech is your mouse/touchpad driver
mxm_wmi - "WMI support for MXM Laptop Graphics" - MXM is a standard for laptop graphics cards, the WMI interface is required for switchable nvidia graphics machines
WMI Adds ACPI Support - Power Management
KVM_intel is the intel driver for Kernel Virtual Mode
KVM is the Virtual Mode Driver
Are you using a VM??

No, I am not using a VM at the moment, though I have one set up. This is just a standard USB flash drive I use to take some files to work, and on unmounting it I got a kernel oops. Does that help?
