I have a similar problem. When trying to disconnect/unmount my usb hard
drive (Samsung SpinPoint) by right-clicking the icon on the desktop, I
get the 'cannot eject volume' error message and the drive reopens.

The only way to unmount the volume for me is using the console:
sudo umount /media/disk

I don't get the error message when unmounting cd's, dvd's, flashdrives
and usbsticks by right-clicking the icons on the desktop.

Funny thing is that this problem first occurred since I did a fresh
reinstall of Feisty. Until the day before yesterday I ran Feisty from an
upgraded Edgy install and I didn't have this problem.
