I can confirm this problem on complete up-to-date Ubuntu Feisty (gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4)) kernel ( 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Thu Jun 7 20:19:32 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux) with portable USB 2 harddisk.
With a 2GB Sandisk USB stick and with USB 1.1 connected digital camera confirmed too. It doesn't matter if files are only red or read/write is used. Haven't used terminal commands for manipulating data on disk, only Nautilus copy/paste actions as user and in a different Nautilus screen as root. It doesn't matter if Nautilus is open or closed when unmounting. Looks like USB software "finds" directly after unmount new USB hardware and opens Nautilus to show the contents. It should only react if hardware is plugged in and not when hardware was already plugged in. Command 'sudo eject /media/disk' in terminal helps to unmount for me, thanks! -- FEISTY (final): remove usb disk : fail to eject https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117133 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
