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. ** Affects: kdebase (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Jonathan Riddell Status: Unconfirmed ** Changed in: kdebase (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Jonathan Riddell ** Summary changed: - No umount option on cdrom device icon in Edgy + No umount option on cdrom device icon in Kubuntu Edgy -- No umount option on cdrom device icon in Kubuntu Edgy https://launchpad.net/bugs/70936 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
