GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 165727
fully reproducible unmount lock with USB key (famd)
Last modified: 2005-01-30 20:41:18 UTC
Please describe the problem: The long standing problems with umount and famd are almost completely solved, excepted just this small one : (small but very irritating from a user point-of-view) The following is fully reproducible : with latest famd installed and running - insert and mount an USB key - open it with nautilus - right-click on any file -> click on "properties" - close the properties windows - close the nautilus window - try to unmount ==> impossible famd still has an open file on the file whose properties have been shown # lsof|grep media famd 4195 ccomb 38r DIR 8,1 16384 1 /media/I-Stick This time the bug does not come from famd, but from the "NOTES" component of the properties window. If you just delete the file libnautilus-notes-view.so, the problem cannot be reproduced again. Some object is not unreferenced, and there is probably just one line to add to fix the bug. This would be nice to help because some distro use (or will use) Gnome 2.6/2.8. More info in http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=280311 http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=12617 regards Ch C. Steps to reproduce: Actual results: Expected results: Does this happen every time? Other information:
you have already added the same description in #102760, why opening a duplicate now ? I'm closing this bug as a duplicate of #102760. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 102760 ***
sorry, but I sometimes feel that old bugs are sometimes sinking into oblivion. #102760 is reported against nautilus 2.0, and it it is not a duplicate. #102760 is a melting pot of many bugs found in fam and nautilus. This is not good to have a multibug report. Every bug should be isolated and reported separately, and since I could isolate this one a bit, I created a new report. Why not creating a bug report saying "nautilus has problems", and then set all other bugs as duplicate of this one ?
there is around 900-1000 bugs on nautilus, open an extra bugs for an issue already in bugzilla will no fix it faster. #102760 has been opened against nautilus 2.0 but the version can be updated if the bug is still here, I've updated it to 2.8. I agree than different issues should have different bug, but you have send exactly the same comment in #102760. So either that's an another issue and the comment in #102760 is not at the right place, either this bug is a duplicate. If you are sure than #102760 as nothing to do with this issue feel free to reopen this bug.
