The user `po' is already a member of `plugdev'.

so get this. yesterday that file was entirely empty. today... looks
just like group-

made a new user, made sure that the user is part of the plugdev group.
$ umount /dev/sdb1
umount: /dev/sdb1: not mounted
umount: /media/video: must be superuser to umount
umount: /dev/sdb1: not mounted
umount: /media/video: must be superuser to umount
that was done under the new user login, not root. along with that
"right click-unmount" on the media icon in GNOME results in nothing.
no error, no unmounting.
