P.S.  It's not a "prob" if you don't plug in the USB cable while Rockbox is running.
   Ok, I misinterpreted, but as too the quote, It wasn't a prob either way before, like it or not, I really don't think the new usb stack should be included in the daily builds for this sansa device, can't speak for others, but this one definitely either needs\the new stack too be removed, or the ability to reboot on USB connect needs to be added as a setting. because as of right now, its annoying to say the least.

First: ROCKBOX IS NOT RELEASE SOFTWARE. This is a point you're missing. We include things because it's a development build, for developers. You're using it, and by doing so, you're volunteering to be a tester. If you don't want to be a tester, don't use it. Either pick a build that works well enough and stop upgrading, or wait for a "release" version.

So please, don't suggest we remove features that we're working on just because they're in progress. You've got rather unreasonable expectations for a development build, I think.

Since you know that when you plug in the USB cable while Rockbox is running it doesn't do what you want it to, why would you do it at all?  Just turn the thing off and plug it in.

And it will work again in the future. Deal with it, or roll back your build, but stop complaining that people are actually working on developing the software by adding to the *development* version so that other people can more easily help with it.

  Where is it that I mentioned a release, I don't think I did, and I was criticizing, true, but I'm at least trying to help, I think the ability to set witch way the device works is a good idea, its My honest opinion, you don't have to take it to heart that I'm bashing you, I'm not, I want this project too work at its top most capacity, and not have too worry about silly little things like turning my device off before I plug it in, I liked to old way, but on the same hand, I hope that you all fix the USB stack so that they actually work, and don't crash the device...

 And I wold love to roll back my build, if I could find where you hid the archives, iv'e been searching your site for hours and can't find the link...

It's the link that says "old" on the daily build page...

Why should there be an option, just so that we have to remove it later? It's pointless, since you can just turn off your player.

As for your mentioning of a release: Why should you expect a development version to be concerned about making silly changes that they'd just have to dig out later? It's more or less simply a waste of developer time, so I was really left thinking you thought that the current build was aimed at users, rather than a work in progress.
