@Tim: I'm not the right person to answer this but I'm sure .hal-mtab is important because it lets HAL know what devices are currently mounted. It sounds like the file itself is not the problem but, rather, something is propagating .hal-mtab with repetitive lines. When the device then gets unmounted, only one of these lines gets removed from .hal-mtab. The device successfully unmounts but HAL sees the device as still mounted in .hal-mtab and hence throws an error. That's just my guess.
I could be wrong but the file should be there in Gutsy and as far as I can tell, the problem is fixed in Gutsy. Is it possible you upgraded from Feisty and the .hal-mtab that was causing problems was created by Feisty? Do you ever experience this bug again after fixing(removing) .hal-mtab? -- Unmount fails every time https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/85424 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
