I've added a quick e-mail notice to mine that tells me when the file transfer is done, and how much space is left on the external drive. This is extremely useful This works great!

After some time i realized that window which popups when you plug pendrive in interfere with my script - but how? I've read in udev docs that udev will wait for script to finish, does it open separate threats? I did nasty workaround by putting "sleep 10" at the beginning of my script - it lets window to open but it's dirty. Can You explain why such situation occurs and how to solve it? :D I appreciate any help. Hi there,
