Public bug reported: Dapper up to date, running Gnome
Steps : 0. Plug a USB hard drive => Icons appear and Nautilus Launches 1. Edit a file located on the hard drive (don't save) 2. Right Click on the icon -> Eject 3. It tells he cannot find the partition (showing you the path) => It should say, "disk in use" or "file foo.txt is being edited" or something like that I've attached a screenshot of the popup preventing me for ejecting. After that, I saved the file I was editing, and it ejected perfectly the hard drive, removing icons for the two partitions of the disk !! ** Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- Ejecting a USB hard tells you the wrong story https://launchpad.net/bugs/58726 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
