GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 143909
Trashing a volume icon should eject/unmount it
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Mount a device (like a NFS share). Drag the icon that appears on the desktop and drop it into the trash bin. An error message "If you want to eject the volume, please use Eject in the right-click menu of the volume." appears. Apparently, Nautilus does understand the fact that I want to eject/unmount it, but it just doesn't do it. I think the behaviour I expected is quite common, especially when one has used a Mac.
