I got it fixed by modifying the kdeeject script. I hope the same thing will work for the iPod.

If you solve this problem, please blog about it. I can’t get my ipod to umount, with exactly the same errors as you talk about. Since it is my wife’s machine, her ipod, and she has no idea how to log in as root and run eject, I have to solve this or get nagged every time she plugs in her ipod.

Was that an automated comment? Weird, because it showed up only minutes after I published that post — I wouldn’t have thought bots could find it that fast. But nobody reads my blog, and my blog had nothing about books or Vollmann before now, so it’s hard to imagine that you actually happened on that entry so fast.

In any case, yes, I have Expelled from Eden. In general, I don’t like “readers”, but this one is very well done. It was actually in flipping through it again and rereading the description of Vollmann’s stay at Isachsen that pushed me back toward The Rifles.

Have you seen EXPELLED FROM EDEN – A VOLLMANN READER. I highly recommend it — I co-ediyed it after all! ;)

Late next year the Univ. of South Carolina Press will release my study UNDERSTANDING WILLIAM T, VOLLMANN.

I have to say that ABP is effective. No pop up issues, and, while I don’t hate the animated avatars with the same fervor, having control over that when needed is a great thing. Super duper even. Thas right. I said Super duper even.

Eff you for introducing profanity to my nice, clean blog.

You now have an arch nemesis. I can’t wait for the flame wars to start.

Or maybe we could take it easy for a while until I get something up and running.

Note to me — fix timestamps for comments.

Test comment — I can’t remember how I set up comment-handling, and posting one is easier than looking through the config stuff.
