Yeah, agreed, but that's a hal problem too, I guess.

Don't work with eject just because > there is nothing to eject. That's wrong. For an external hdd eject is not the same as umount. Well, you umount a filesystem, and you eject a device. Ejecting an external hd will power it down. And it's required in quite some cases. What would be nice is a way to choose if one wants to umount a partition or eject the device holding it. But even with that case, their are tricky ones (for example cryptofs and stuff like that). Cheers, -- Yves-Alexis -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
