I couldn't report this bug against linux-source-2.6.24 package; launchpad claims it is a binary package. ** Attachment added: "uname-a.log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14673264/uname-a.log -- Can't unmount/eject external USB hard drive https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226606 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 226606] Re: Can't unmount/eject external USB hard drive
He is right. I'm getting the same problem. If anyone owns a Blackberry (basically a USB drive) and uses the computer to charge it, repeated plugging and unplugging will eventually lead to having multiple copies of "BLACKBERRY" building up on the desktop GUI. Some will unmount. Others will give the error "/sbin/unmount.hal: /media/BLACKBERRY is not recognized by hal" After this happens, you will no longer be able to access files on your Blackberry.

hank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately we can't fix it, because your description didn't include enough information.

[Bug 226606] Re: Can't unmount/eject external USB hard drive
Okay, on further investigation, I have found that I can remove the "orphaned" volume by first unmounting the active volume, then running the "mount" command. The list generated showed the device name and mount point for the orphaned volume. I then ran the "sudo umount && rm -r ". This removed the orphaned volume and mount point. It still would be nice to have an more graceful way to clean up orphaned volumes in the GUI.

[Bug 226606] Re: Can't unmount/eject external USB hard drive
I am using Ubuntu 8.04. This problem occurs for me when a disk volume is improperly disconnected during a session. When the disk is reconnected, oftentimes, two icons for the volume will appear on the desktop. The second volume can be unmounted normally, but the original "orphaned" icon always appears on the desktop until the next reboot. The attached screenshot shows the problem. Here we have two "VM" volumes displayed on the desktop and in the filesystem tree. One volume works fine, the other is orphaned. When attempting to unmount the orphaned volume, the error message referenced in this thread appears. It looks to me like there should be a way to unmount or clear these orphaned volumes without having to reboot, but currently there is no solution that I know of. Help would be appreciated. Thanks. ** Attachment added: "Screenshot.png" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14228048/Screenshot.png -- Can't unmount/eject external USB hard drive https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226606 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
