Public bug reported:

I'm using the media-applet 0.3.2 Ubuntu package, with gnome-mount
0.8-1ubuntu1.  When I click to eject an external hard drive (labeled
"External") in media-applet, it appears to work properly, however I get
the following message:

Cannot unmount the volume 'External'.
Cannot remove directory

The /media/External directory does get removed, however.  The following
messages are displayed on the console:

mount added :68606E5F606E344A,External
(media-applet:17455): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_window_get_origin: assertion 
`GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed
mount removed : 68606E5F606E344A,External
unable to read content type attributeunable to read content type attribute

I get the exact same error message when I run "gnome-mount -vu -d /dev/sdb1" 
manuallly.
If I run "gnome-mount -ve -d /dev/sdb1" (eject instead of unmount), I get the 
following error:
Cannot eject volume
There was an error ejecting the volume or drive.
org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume.UnknownFailure: Cannot remove directory

But this time, the partition gets unmounted, but the /media/External
directory still exists, and I am not able to re-mount the drive with
either media-applet or gnome-mount.  Mounting manually (with "mount", as
root) still works fine, and once I've mounted it once manually, I can
remount it again with gnome-mount, however, if I don't first remove the
/media/External directory, it will mount it to /media/External_.
