I just noticed that the unmounting button has been removed from the places panel. I used to use it to unmount/eject CD/DVD drives. Especially since the device notifier has a bug which prevents CD/DVD to be unmounted through it. Could it come back? Reproducible: Always
Resetting assignee to default as per bug #305719
You can unmount the devices by rightclicking on them in the sidebar. But I too would prefer to have an unmount icon at the right side of a device entry. In my case not necessarily for unmounting - but to see at one glance which devices are mounted and which not. The nice disk usage bar below mounted devices alas has vanished in KDE 4.9 (it was a good indicator though only when hovering over the sidebar) and the overlay icons for mounted/not mounted are not very good distinguishable for me.
Thanks for the report - I've made the summary a bit clearer (I think there never was an 'unmount' button, but only an 'eject' button - just tried it with an external dard drive on a system with KDE 4.7). (In reply to comment #2) > The nice disk usage bar below > mounted devices alas has vanished in KDE 4.9 Could you file a new report about that? It's impossible to keep track of different wishes which are mixed in a single report. Thanks.
