autofs not unmounting partition

Hi
problem is that autofs not umount the partition also it remount the partition every 3 second.
here is my configs :

content of auto.master file :

Code:

+auto.master

/media/auto    /etc/ext4.auto --timeout 3

content of /etc/ext4.auto:

Code:

ext4 -fstype=ext4 :/dev/sda6

here is the log from syslog:

Code:

i use Ubuntu 12.04

Hi
I checked autofs mailing list for this problem and find out in gui based systems like ubuntu with gnome or other guis . file manager keep the mount point busy and because of that this problem happen.
I will check it on none gui system and write the results here.

Hi every body
i just want to inform :
i did a test on none GUI debian and it works fine. so the problem was come from GUI file manager that keep the mount point busy and cause autofs not to unmount.
