[Bug 792085] Re: Automatic remount of safely removed drive

 

That workaround doesn't work for me. There is some activity on the drive
light, however, it remains on with the motor running. The only thing
that works for me is to close the notebook lid, wait for it to suspend,
remove the drive, then open the lid again.

Title:
  Automatic remount of safely removed drive

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “udev” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  When I choose "Safely remove drive" context menu entry for an external
  USB drive within a nautilus window or directly clicking on the desktop
  icon, after about 10 seconds the drive is automatically remounted and
  a Nautilus window showing the root folder opens.

  I have noticed that similar already happened with a very old Ubuntu
  version - Bug #110589 and as that is so long time ago I thought it is
  better to open a new bug. Reason of the problem might even be
  completely different.
