Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-volume-
I have Ubuntu Dapper (Dutch language, I try to translate everything to English). Yesterday I burned a CD with Nautilus > rightmouse on file: Burn to disk. Burning went fine, at the end, the progress bar indicated 'Completed'. I was presented choice: Eject / ? / Close. I chose to close the window and unmount/eject the CD by right-clicking on the desktop icon and choosing Eject. Then I got an error message:
umount: /dev/hdc: niet aangekoppeld (not connected)
umount: /media/cdrom0: moet supergebruiker zijn om te ontkoppelen (must be sudo to do so)
umount: /dev/hdc: niet aangekoppeld (not connected)
umount: /media/cdrom0: moet supergebruiker zijn om te ontkoppelen (must be sudo to do so)
The CD was not ejected. I tried again by going to Locations > Computer and right-clicking on device which did not work either.
At the end I just pushed the Eject-button of my CD-burner...
From that moment:
- CD-burner and CD/DVD-burner do not mount/umount automatically.
It seems that the rights have been changed because with sudo I can.
sudo mount /media/cdrom0/ -o unhide
sudo umount /media/cdrom0/
- I don't use my floppy drive, so I don't know about this.
- USB-pen still mounts automatically, Eject seems to go fine too, but Error message is displayed.
Everything is being written to USB-pen, the Desktop icon dissapears, after this Error:
Kan opdracht niet starten Uitvoeren van dochterproces "eject" mislukt (Permission denied)
i.e. Cannot perform task Performing daughter process Eject failed (Permission denied)
There was a kernel update yesterday, so maybe this could be causing the problem?
Could you help me with this please?

I just did a clean install (Ubuntu Feisty) and now everything seems to works fine.
Another possible cause of the above problem could be the system hardening tool Bastille which I installed at the beginning of this week. I didn't alter the rwe rights in Bastille because I think standard Ubuntu is OK?
