Public bug reported:

Hi,

I just realized, there is only eject option on the mounted cdrom device
icon if I click on it with right mouse button. So every time if I want
to umount my cdrom I have to do it from command line. Eject option is
great if I want to eject the media from the cdrom, but sometimes I would
like to umount the media only. For example I have a mounted CD-RW medium
in the CD drive, and I would like to umount and refill with new data.

I checked the following file:

/usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/media_unmount.desktop

See the first few lines:

ServiceTypes=media/floppy5_mounted,media/floppy_mounted,media/hdd_mounted,media/nfs_mounted,media/smb_mounted
Actions=MediaUnmount;
X-KDE-Priority=TopLevel
X-KDE-MediaNotifierHide=true

I just add the following entries to the end of the "ServiceTypes" line:

media/cdrom_mounted,media/cdwriter_mounted,media/dvd_mounted

So the head of my new
/usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/media_unmount.desktop file looks
like this:

ServiceTypes=media/floppy5_mounted,media/floppy_mounted,media/hdd_mounted,media/nfs_mounted,media/smb_mounted,media/zip_mounted,media/vcd,media/svcd,media/dvdvideo,media/c
Actions=MediaUnmount;
X-KDE-Priority=TopLevel
X-KDE-MediaNotifierHide=true

Now I have "umount" option too not only the "eject" option available.

I think I presented a possible solution for this problem. Please insert
this fix in the next version of kdebase package.
