This problem has not gone away with
Linux Mint 14 (Ubuntu 12.10) on my
pc with the nvidia chipset.
In fact, it is now worse because
Safely Remove Drive has been removed.
See launchpad #1067876.
So to safely remove my portable hard drive
I now need the following 4 commands:
> udisks --unmount /dev/sdb1
> udisks --detach /dev/sdb
wait for remount
> udisks --unmount /dev/sdb1
> udisks --detach /dev/sdb
Replace sdb with whatever your drive is using.
Add more udisks --unmount commands if you have
multiple partitions mounted.
