Title:
  Nautilus fails to detect the manual removal of media

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  Description:	Ubuntu 10.10
  Release:	10.10
  nautilus:
    Installed: 1:2.32.0-0ubuntu1
    Candidate: 1:2.32.0-0ubuntu1
    Version table:
   *** 1:2.32.0-0ubuntu1 0

  I manually changed media from a DVD to a CD without dismounting it
  first in Nautilus or other application.  I was surprised to find that
  the change of media was ignored by the system.  I don't know what
  happens to the associated interrupts, but they should be serviced.
  They seem to be ignored.  I suspect that Nautilus is being mushroom
  managed by the kernel and its driver.

  I don't think it is good software policy to suppress or ignore
  interrupts having to do with the presence or absence of media.  In
  fact, I think it is totally inappropriate to do so.  Operating
  silliness like this went out with the ATLAS-8.  And yes, I am angry.
  There must be someone who knows this system that can get this right.
