Binary package hint: gnome-volume-manager

Hello there again :-)

I have another bug report for you. I've just connected my USB pendrive, copied a relatively small file (about 15MB) to it - copying dialog didn't show up (the pendrive is pretty fast - 12MB/s write speed), so I just right-clicked on it, clicked Eject and instead of well-known dapper's "ejecting device" dialog I got an error message saying that the "device is busy".. then the pendrive light went on for a few seconds (looked kinda like syncing), and when it went back off I could unmount the device normally, with the regular "ejecting device" dialog.
Not a serious bug, but a serious annoyance, especially for users who get confused easily :-)

thanks,
robzon
