[Bug 959888] Re: Volume is busy. "Unmount Anyway" never works.

 

I have seen this same problem. If you loose network connectivity while
transferring data from a network drive and you try to cancel the
transfer and unmount the drive you get this dialog.

Clicking either "cancel" or "unmount anyway" does nothing and just pops
up the same dialog again. This is an infinite loop and since the dialog
is modal, as Nicolas noted, you are pretty much SOL at this point.

Title:
  Volume is busy. "Unmount Anyway" never works.

Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When unmounting a disk which is in use, it indicates what application
  is using that disk with the following message:

  Volume is busy
  One or more applications are keeping the volume busy
  [Window Name \ Command as seen by 'ps x']
  (Cancel) (Unmount Anyway)

  Clicking the "Unmount Anyway" option doesn't work; it loops the same
  message.
