Public bug reported: What happens when you eject an ipod using gnome disk mounter applet and rhythmbox is different.
When you plug and ipod into a computer, it automatically mounts. The ipod screen will have a 'do not disconnect' warning message. If you have the disk mounter applet and use that to disconnect the ipod, it is unmounted, but the warning on the ipod screen is still there. Alternativly, you can open rhythmbox, select the ipod then click eject. The ipod is unmounted on the computer and the do not disconnect message goes away from the ipod screen. Clearly rhythmbox has some knowledge of ipods and tells the ipod something to make it know it's no longer mounted. Gnome mount should do this too. Some people might suggest that gnome-mount is not a full featured ipod management system, however it goes to the trouble of displaying a special icon for the ipod and says 'Eject Apple iPod', so it should at least eject it properly. ** Affects: gnome-mount (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Ejecting an ipod should tell the ipod to disconnect, like rhythmbox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164682 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
