Yes, /media/usbdisk is a mounted USB device, and the mount point is a directory 'fs' within this.
I've done some more checking and I don't believe this is related to the problem. The problem appears to be related to mount/umount and the use of loop devices. My mount line represents the following: /media/usbdisk/.fs.ext3 --> /dev/loop4 --> /media/usbdisk/fs ext2 file containing EXT3 filesystem --> loop device --> mounted EXT3 filesystem The problem is that in the past, "umount /dev/loop4" worked, and this is the command that the Gnome interface is executing. My setup is as follows: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg -S /bin/umount diversion by loop-aes-utils from: /bin/umount diversion by loop-aes-utils to: /bin/umount.orig mount, loop-aes-utils: /bin/umount [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg -l mount loop-aes-utils ||/ Name Version Description +++-==============-==============-============================================ ii loop-aes-utils 2.12r-11 Tools for mounting and manipulating filesyst ii mount 2.12r-11ubuntu Tools for mounting and manipulating filesyst So, perhaps the problem is loop-aes-utils? -- Right click unmount (umount) of loop device fails https://launchpad.net/bugs/84201 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
