*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 36252 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/36252 hello, i have the same problem. eject device in right-click mouse does not work since feisty. thats a pity, cause on this point it feels like windows xp, where its a hell to eject external devices. sudo eject /media/XXX does not work properly, as nautilus still holds the disk and when clicking on disk-icon its online again. it does not completely disappear from system. but i must say, this bug, till now, never corrupted my data. its just annoying and uncomfortable. the workaround mentioned before ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hal/+bug/99538/comments/6 ) does not work for me. i'm sure it can be fixed, the question is how. -- external USB HDD canno't unmout https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103790 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber (via bug 36252). -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 36252 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/36252 I hope this offers a clue as to what's going on: I have two external drives, one ejects properly, the other does not. The smaller drive is set up as two EXT3 partitions, both under 100GB. This ejects without problem. The larger drive is set up as a single 458 GB EXT3 partition. Viewing the System Monitor/File Systems I can see it briefly unmount after ejecting it then it immediatly remounts stating cannot eject volume. -- external USB HDD canno't unmout https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103790 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber (via bug 36252). -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 36252 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/36252 The workaround noted above did not fix the problem for me. Having the problem on a 500gb usb drive. In case there's any confusion as to whether this is a bug or a feature, I assure you that that not being able to safely unmount a drive is a fairly serious bug. This was not a problem until a few weeks ago, several upgrades into the Feisty beta. -- external USB HDD canno't unmout https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103790 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber (via bug 36252). -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Test with an external 250G disk with a small 20G Fat32 and a big 230G ext3 - Feisty 64 : the ext3 failed to mount (bad fs type. superbloc, etc). The fat 32 mount. When ejecting the fat32 (what else ?) with mouse the two trie to remount, same error as previous... - Feisty 32 : the two mounts. Can't unmount... it remount each time !

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 36252 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/36252 When I removed the /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-storage- policy.fdi file, it'd appear that the umount was sucessfully, but it was not. At least on my external usb 320gb IOMEGA, the default behaviour is that the disk stops humming when ummounted, but in this case it continues (even though it appears ummount in Nautilus, is still mounted in the system somehow). Only stops humming when I use the eject /dev/sda1 command. This worked perfectly with Ubuntu Edgy, so it must have been a recent update. -- external USB HDD canno't unmout https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103790 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber (via bug 36252). -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 36252 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/36252 I can confirm that if I remove the /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-storage-policy.fdi file, then unmounting works perfectly. Is this file that important, what are the devices that _need_ to be ejected and can this not be done more selectively, I mean, usb mass storage devices vary greatly, I'm sure there's some hal info that can be used to create a rule. -- external USB HDD canno't unmout https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103790 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber (via bug 36252). -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
