Description of problem:
if I try to mount floppy which is not in the drive or I am ejecting CD,
everytime applet increases its memory usage by an amount of cca 10MB and doesn't
free it. So if I eject 20 CDs drivemount_applet2 has a cca 20MB(initial) +
20*10MB = 220MB :)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. try to mount floppy without floppy in the drive or
2. try to eject CD

Actual results:

Expected results:
applet should free memory correctly

Additional info:
had no opportunity to eject or mount anything else ...

This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd.

Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and
either update the target product or close it ?

Thanks.

The information we've requested above is required in order
to review this problem report further and diagnose/fix the
issue if it is still present.  Since there haven't been any
updates to the report in quite a long time now after we've
requested additional information, we're assuming the problem
is either no longer present in our current OS release, or
that there is no longer any interest in tracking the problem.

Setting status to CANTFIX, however if you still
experience this problem after updating to our latest Fedora
Core release and are still interested in Red Hat tracking
the issue, and assisting in troubleshooting the problem,
please feel free to provide the information requested above,
and reopen the report.

Thank you in advance.
