[ale] Spooked USB card reader

I had a similar situation happen with CDs on Mandrake.

It only ever happened when the automount would apparently fail, and I'd remove 
the CD, and it wouldnt detect that I'd removed it. 

You might want to try manually umounting the drive after you're done copying 
the photos, then mount it when you read off a new card. Unmounting the cdrom 
drive works for me when this occasionally happens.
