upower: cd unmount on eject


Hi everywhere,

I already started a thread earlyer (cd icon doesn't disappear on eject) with the same problem: If I press the eject button of my optical drive the disk ejects but was not unmountet. So the icon remains on my desktop and I could even browse through the directory of the disk.

The problem was solved by installing and running hal which tells the software to unmount if the disk is ejected.

But now: hal is officially deprecated. Gentoo and archlinux use upower (I haven't checked other distributions jet) and the same "Error" appears: If I press the eject button, the icon remains on the desktop and I could browse through the directory.

Does anybody have an idea how to solve this problem?

Greetings

ToK
