Comment 45 for bug 892316

I do not know whether I should open a new bug report or whether my problem is related to this bug. When I connect a Western Digital external hard disk to my computer, I can unmount it if the MGSE media player extension is off OR Banshee is not running. If I unmount the hard disk when Banshee is running WITH the media player extension, the computer freezes and I have to hold the power button during 4 seconds to switch the computer off.

The 300-GB external hard disk is formatted in one NTFS partition after an unmovable Western Digital one invisible to fdisk (end of fdisk -l):

     Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 2048 623769599 311883776 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT

I do not have any problems with non-NTFS partitions on other USB devices (FAT32, ext3, ext4 or several partitions of those types). I am running Linux Mint 12 (uname -a):
