["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

jlord87, could you please confirm this issue exists with the latest
development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If the issue remains,
could you please run the following command in the development release
from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will
automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this
report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc4

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, please comment as to why specifically you were unable to test it and add the following tags:
kernel-unable-to-test-upstream
kernel-unable-to-test-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

   usb-storage: Not Ready: Medium not present after scsi eject command

** Package changed: udisks (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu)

** Description changed:

  If you try to backup and usb pen drive with the (nice) preinstalled tool
  "udisk" the program fails with this error:
  
  "Error opening /dev/sdb: Device or resource busy (udisks-error-quark,
  0)"
  
  HOW TO REPRODUCE
  1) insert an usb pen drive
  2) start udisk
  3) select "create image disk" (not really shure about the english text string)
  4) you will be prompted for the user password, than the program will exit with the error written above.
  
  HOW TO FIX
  1) insert the usb pen drive
  2) manual umount it (for me "sudo umount /dev/sdb1")
  3) launch udisks (you can obviously umount the drive after launching udisks)
  4) start the "create image disk" process
  5) it will work.
  
- For shure a small bug, but I really believe is that kind of bugs that negatively influence end-user's experience.
- It shouldn't be too hard for some developer to add an "umount step" to the script that back up your drive.

- have a nice day
