Description Sebastien Bacher 2006-04-01 13:11:42 UTC 
That bug has been opened on https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/36774

"disks and partitons can be ejected or unmounted from the context menu when in computer:///, but not when in /media

if you are browsing a disk and click up, do don't arrive anywhere from which you can eject the disk. even if you got into the disk by starting at computer:///

i propose that either:
'eject' is added to the context menu when you right click on the mount point of any mounted disk.

when you are in /media/USBDisk and you click up, you arrive into computer:///

set to wishlist. "a man can dream""

http://mail.gnome.org/archives/nautilus-list/2006-February/msg00085.html has a patch that can be used for Ubuntu until we get this upstream (2.16 for us, 2.14 for you :D). Thanks for filing it here, so the patch doesn't get lost.

Christian, that's fixed to CVS now, right?

Proposed patch

Also submited to Nautilus list for review:
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/nautilus-list/2006-December/msg00101.html

This should heavily improve the volume/drive experience as it implements drive/volume operations for both the selected files and the open folder in a consistent and (IMO) intuitive way.

If this goes in, we'll just have to adapt FMTreeView to the new API and volume handling shouldn't leave much to desire :).

I think this can be closed...now in 2.21.92, clicking on a mount point in /media has the "Unmount Volume" option in the context menu, and the second request of this request is bug #422099. Please reopen this bug if you can still reproduce it with Nautilus >=2.21.92, thanks.
