Phillip Susi, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily kernel folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11.1 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Package changed: udisks (Ubuntu) => linux ** Changed in: linux Status: Invalid => New ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/558926 Title: Open files on ejected media cause automount of new media to break Status in The Linux Kernel: New Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Open a file on a cdrom, perhaps as simply as changing the working directory of a shell to a location in /media/cdrom, then eject the disc. The filesystem is forcibly unmounted, so it no longer appears in df, mount, or /proc/mounts, though it appears to still actually be sort of mounted since you can run stat . from the shell. The kernel begins complaining filling /var/log/kern.log with messages like: VFS: busy inodes on changed media or resized disk sr0 At this point the drive has vanished from view in nautilus. It no longer appears on the places menu or in the computer folder. If you insert a different disc it also will not show up in nautilus and you can not mount it through the gui until whichever processes that still have file descriptors open on files on the ejected media are closed.
