GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 129684
Cannot unmount CD-ROM
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Sometimes I cannot unmount the cdrom even though I have nothing using it. It gives a "busy" error. Using lsof I see that fam still has a open directory on the cdrom. Maybe nautilus isn't telling fam to stop monitoring stuff sometimes? I'm unable to reproduce this on demand. It happens often but not always. The only way out is to logoff or restart xinetd as root.
Thanks for the bug report. This particular bug has already been reported into our bug tracking system, but please feel free to report any further bugs you find. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 102760 ***
If you can, try upgrading to nautilus >= 2.4.1, and fam >= 2.7.0. I observed this problem in nautilus 2.4.0 and fam 2.6.10, but after upgrading I don't see this problem anymore.
