removable medias mounted for every user logged

I can confirm this issue on my setup. It is a particular problem when inserting media such as DVDs, since they autoplay on all users simultaneously.

Could you mark it as confirmed then please.

Cheers

I ran into this oddity today. I thought I was going crazy because I couldn't figure out what program was playing the audio CD I put in.

Thanks for your bug report. This bug has been reported to the developers of the software. You can track it and make comments here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=545184

Is there a workaround? The correct behavior should be that each user should be able to eject the media that they inserted.

i confirm this behavior for mounting usb camera too.

when i switch to other users (after a session of mounting and unmounting of a usb camera)
 i see "left over" dialogs from the times when i plugged in the camera (on the previous user)
the camera is no longer connected (physically) . actually, they are confused...
when switching to their desktop and faced with those dialogs.

i think, pluggable mounted devices should display auto-mount-dialogs for the current user only.

maybe? another related issue/bug...
if i plug the camera on some user's session and then move to some other user's session
i get dbus error. and when i move back to the first user's session i see the auto-mount-dialog
still open on the desktop.
only when i move through all the open user's sessions on the system and close all the redundant dialogs
i can mount the camera successfully on the user's session.

I can confirm this behavior as well. I'm including a screenshot of a white window that occurred due to mounting an SD card on another session.

i confirm having the same bug

I can also confirm this bug. It's bothered for 1.5-2 years.

If someone else is logged in and I mount a cd with porn and unmount it, everyone on this system currently logged in will have a nice window opened when they log in again with thumbnails of all the porn on the cd I had mounted for a short time when they log in.

Another annoying side effect of this bug is when you want to blank a cd you have to ask all the other users logged in to umount /cdrom so you can blank it. sudo umount /cdrom works of course, but it's still silly. I mounted it, not the other users.

This has now been resolved upstream by adding ConsoleKit support to Nautilus

Will the fix be released for 8.04?

It's not fixed. It just happened again today on freshly installed Ubuntu 9.10.

Two users were logged in, UserA and UserB.. UserA being the active one.
Mounted a CD while logged in as UserA, tried to unmount only to find out that it was owned/mounted by UserB.

and it' happend in Debian Squeeze too now
