Nemo closing after USB mass storage ejection

Post by gzchetco »

The only irritating glitch in LM14/Cinn for me so far is USB mass storage ejection with Nemo. When right-clicking a USB device and choosing Eject, Nemo itself closes too and must be restarted. Has anyone else noticed this undesirable behavior with Nemo??

Mint 14/Cinn has finally made desktop Linux great again! :)

I wonder how to keep Nemo from opening a new instance of itself when a USB mass storage device is inserted, I believe there was a way to configure the system or Nautilus to handle these devices in the Gnome2 days.

As to Nemo closing on ejection, I guess we will wait for a patch/new version unless anyone knows the answer for this.

Reinstalling Nemo eliminated the closing problem on mass-storage eject. :D

To keep mass-storage devices from opening a new instance:
System settings > Details > Removable Media > Never prompt or start programs on media insertion
Maybe better descriptors in the settings might be an idea.
