Re: strange nautilus eject problem
(sorry about the top-post-reply style. some people dislike this, but in...)
I never use that menu to eject things. I only right click on the
desktop icon and choose Eject.
This didn't work on the computer I mentioned earlier (old Gateway). It
does work fine for all other systems.
And yes you are right, if I open a terminal and type "eject" it
umount's and ejects the disk fine. I have "close" alias'ed to "eject
-t" which closes the tray just fine (from the commnad line.
