Description James Richard Tyrer 2004-02-01 00:04:24 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.0)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          GCC 3.3.2 
OS:          Linux

If you:

Insert a floppy.
Open the devices tab in the sidebar.
Click the '+' in front of the floppy.

The floppy is mounted and the node is expanded

Click on Devices at the top of the tree.

The devices are now shown in the KFM window.

RMB the floppy in the KFM window and choose: "Unmount".

The floppy unmounts and the icons in both the KFM and sidebar windows are updated.

HOWEVER: the node in the side bar does not close.

The problem is worse than just this.

Open another Konqueror window and as KFM, go to the mount point for the floppy.  Click on the mount point icons and it opens showing the directory which is on the now unmounted floppy.

Something in KFM didn't get updated -- it still thinks that the floppy is mounted.

My thought is that you shouldn't be able to unmount the floppy before closing the node in the sidebar because (technically) the device is still busy.  However, if this is possible, then the node needs to be closed automatically.

All reports about file management mode reported against KDE 3 (konqueror) are being closed: konqueror in KDE 3 is no more developed and mantained. All bugs and wishes which could be interesting for Dolphin in KDE 4 (the new KDE file manager) has been collected into a specific list.

Please try the new file manager before request new features and report bugs.

Before submitting new reports check carefully the already opened KDE/Dolphin reports in order not to add duplicates.

Many thanks.
