[xubuntu-users] USB Indicator Applet ~ Alternative?

[Joshua O'Leary]

Hi,
One alternative would be to create a panel launcher to eject whatever USB drive is plugged in, running a command line for you, e.g.

	umount /dev/sdb*
or
	umount /dev/sdb?

assuming the drive sda is the HDD and there are no other drives attached. If you wanted more flexibility, a launcher to a simple bash script from the panel that opens up with a list of drives to unmount could work quite well, if I find the time I might have a go at this. Just an idea.
