Hm, but that sounds like the wrong thing to me for this particular case, since the user isn't supposed to do two additional clicks just after unmounting? Should it be an unfocused window with just a bouncing progress bar, which automatically goes away once umount is done? -- "Writing data to device" appears as fallback alert https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/332600 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Notify OSD Developers, which is subscribed to Notify OSD. Status in Canonical's Notification Display Agent: Confirmed Status in “gnome-mount” source package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “indicator-applet” source package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: gnome-mount 0.8-1ubuntu1, Ubuntu Jaunty When a removable storage device is taking non-trivial time to unmount (flushing the cache), gnome-mount puts up a "Writing data to device" notification asking you not to disconnect it while that's happening. Because it is persistent, Notify OSD renders this notification as a suboptimal fallback alert box. Instead, gnome-mount should use a progress window containing the warning text. It may save time to fix bug 325315 at the same time as this bug. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD#gnome-mount> _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
