Bug Description

When I unmount my USB hard disk Ubuntu gives me the following error message:

Unable to eject media
eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument

The hard disk does not take removable media so it is no surprise that it can't
be ejected!

This did not happen in Ubuntu 5.04; I have only noticed it since upgrading to 5.10.
