[Voyage-linux] remounting issues and screen issues

I faced this morning a problem touching this same area:

I have and USB flash mounted as /mnt. When I try to unmount the stick, 
Voyage (0.6.2) responds:

     umount: /mnt: device is busy

What is this? Is it wrong to mount the USB stick directly to /mnt or is 
it something else?

Is there a ps option or some way to see which process might keep this busy?


Thanks, Anttu
