Ah, I'm sorry I misunderstood. If it's properly warning people not to disconnect/eject, it should be a progress window rather than a notification *or* an alert box.
** Description changed: gnome-mount 0.8-1ubuntu1, Ubuntu Jaunty - When a removable storage device is disconnected or removed without first - being unmounted, gnome-mount puts up a "Writing data to device" - notification that asks you not to do what you've already done. Because - it is persistent, Notify OSD renders this notification as a suboptimal - fallback alert box. + When a removable storage device is taking non-trivial time to unmount + (flushing the cache), gnome-mount puts up a "Writing data to device" + notification asking you not to disconnect it while that's happening. + Because it is persistent, Notify OSD renders this notification as a + suboptimal fallback alert box. - Instead, gnome-mount should use a proper error alert box with less - futile text. + Instead, gnome-mount should use a progress window containing the warning + text. It may save time to fix bug 325315 at the same time as this bug. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD#gnome-mount> -- "Writing data to device" appears as fallback alert https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/332600 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Notify OSD Developers, which is subscribed to Notify OSD.
