when returning from sleep, nautilus opens removable media

[Oded Arbel]

Binary package hint: nautilus

Use case as follows:
1. I have inserted an SD card to my laptop's reader.
2. Nautilus opens up a file browser to that SD card.
3. I close the window.
4. I suspend the laptop.
5. I resume the laptop

Nautilus opens up a file browser to the SD card again. I believe this is wrong - Nautilus should only open a window for a removable media only when it is first inserted.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

There have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates. Could you tell me if the persist after you update you're system?
I tried your bug on my laptop and I didn't have the problem.

This is 100% reproducible on my laptop running a fully updated Ubuntu 9.10. I'm using a thinkpad X61s with an internal SD card reader. The thinkpad also has a docking station with a DVD writer, and if I resume when the docking station is connected and there is a disc in the DVD drive, I also get the "What would you like to do with the disc you just inserted" dialog in addition to the SD card being opened.

I'm going to upgrade my laptop to Lucid for Alpha 3, but as it features the same GNOME version (no 2.30, right?) then I don't assume it will behave differently.

Here is my kernel syslog from waking up - I don't see anything interesting there except the last line about the cdrom. I think the SD reader is connected internally through USB, so that might be related.

Do you still see that issue in newer versions?
