[Bug 1103593] Re: Unity always shows all devices in launcher when CD is inserted
I recently moved form 12.04 to 14.04 (through a clean upgrade, keeping home partition) and so dar this is the only serious bug I have encountered.
It affects me both opn removing an audio-cd as noted above (have not tested with other optical media) and, more annoyingly, on removing my android (google nexus 4) phone.
Detailed description of setup and behavior:
- I have a number of NFS shares on a home server that are mounted through fstab.
-After installing Trusty these all appeared in the launcher. Right
clicking one of them and selcting 'unlock form launcher' removed them
all.
- On inserting a CD or plugging my phone in nothing happens in the
launcher (ideaally these devices would show up, but no big deal)
- On ejecting the disc or plugging out the phone all the other mounted
drives, including nfs shares reappear in the launcher and need to again
be 'unlocked from launcher')
- Pendrives do behave correctly: they show up seperately in the launcher
on being inserted, and dissapear upon 'eject' either via filemanager or
ddirectly through the launcher.
- I also have to USB-3 hard drives that show a mixture of these behaviors. They appear seperately in the launcher upon turning them on (good). If I select unmount in the filemanager they remain visible in the launcher and dissapear upon turning them off. However, if I select 'safely remove dirve, either through the launcher or filemanager, they briefly dissappear and reappear along with all the NFS shares in the launcher.
NB: this last behavior seems related to Nemo being deafault file manager. With Nautilus there is no 'safely remove' option either in launcher or in file manager, instead I can 'unmount' through launcher and then turn the drive off.
All other behavior appears identical regardless of default file manager.

Unity always shows all devices in launcher when CD is inserted

Bug description:
In Ubuntu 12.10 the default behavior when inserting a CD (or a USB
memory stick, etc.) is to add a list of mounted devices to the
launcher. This takes up a lot of extra space for me as I usually have
several Samba mounts. Furthermore, I don't need or want to see my CD
in the launcher.
I can click right on the mounted devices and select "Unlock from
launcher", but the next time I insert a CD they're back. Disabling
this "feature" should be an option in 12.10. I believe it was an
option in 12.04 via CCSM. Thanks.
