Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-volume-
Using Feisty from the repositories.
I have an external USB HD. When I turn it on it mounts automatically. Sometimes however for reasons unknown to me, something prevents me from unmounting it (right-clicking the icon for the disk on the desktop and selecting "Unmount Volume"). I don't know what and am not sure how to find out what because the error message is not very helpful:
Cannot unmount volume
an application is preventing the volume from being unmounted.
What would be nice is if it would identify the app(s) and ask if I want them closed and the drive unmounted.
A wishlist bug perhaps?
