I am afraid that the head of my hard drive is not in secure position
after umount. Thunar has an item called "Eject Volume" in right-click
menu of the disk's item in its panel. Thunar can't eject a partition by
"Eject Volume", but it umounts the partition. In one of my Xubuntu 8.04
machines it gives an error message in that point: 'Failed to eject "320G
Volume". An unknown error occured.' I think it would be more sensible to
umount the parition and eject the associated device, if no paritions of
the device are mounted.
Tested device: The USB hard disk is Western Digital model WD3200XMS-00
formatted as ext3.
** Affects: thunar (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
