Thank you for your commits, David! I installed all build-dependencies on my Ubuntu 14.04 system with 'apt- get install build-dep', did a 'git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/udisks', did './autogen.sh', did 'make', did 'sudo checkinstall make install', verified that I have udisks 2.1.3 installed with 'apt-cache policy', did 'mv /usr/local/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.udisks2.policy /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/' and rebooted my machine.
Please note: automount is disabled. What I get after reboot? 1. for USB-HDDs (both drives have EXT4 and NTFS partitions) 1.1. Seagate - 'Safely remove drive' option in Nautilus spinned-down it, gnome-disks spinned-down it after click on 'Power off the drive'. The 'udisksctl power-off -b /dev/sdX' works too. If I enable automount, the 'Safely remove drive'/'Power off the drive' spins-down my drive. It's very good! 1.2. WD - 'Safely remove drive' option in Nautilus spinned-down it, gnome-disks 'Power off the drive' and 'udisksctl power-off -b /dev/sdX' works too. But there is a little difference - if I enable automount the 'Safely remove drive'/'Power off the drive' does not spin-down the disk (disk plates rotating, but device is removed from system), I reopen the bug because of this. 2. for USB-flashes There is no 'Safely remove drive' option in Nautilus for my USB-flashes. After 'Eject' the parent device remains in system and may be powered-off by gnome-disks. For me it's a good compromise between udisks1 and udisks2 behavior. I'm ready to test and collect logs of my WD USB-HDD. I can't understand why Seagate drive unmounts all partitions before power-off, but WD does not. What logs can help you to understand the problem? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-disk-utility in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1239087 Title: Safely remove is not working (or broken) in Gnome Disks To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-disk-utility/+bug/1239087/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
