Seject script is used which poweroff the drive, if you do not want that replace it with udisksctl command.
Features
1. USb Icon pops up on Taskbar on USB insert from clicking that icon, we can eject (poweroff the drive).
2. Usb Icon vanishes on all USB eject.
3. Yad notifications for, drive name ejected, waiting for sync, if drive used then msg of cannot disconnect, etc.
4. Right click the icon also has yad menu
5. If one usb is there direct poweroff, if more than one it will display two drives connected and you can double click to eject the selected one.
Setup required
1. Udev rule - File name - 99-usb-tray.rules - /etc/udev/rules.d/
Code: Select all
SUBSYSTEM=="block", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="disk", ENV{ID_BUS}=="usb", ACTION=="add", RUN+="/usr/local/bin/usb-tray-handler.sh add"
SUBSYSTEM=="block", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="disk", ENV{ID_BUS}=="usb", ACTION=="remove", RUN+="/usr/local/bin/usb-tray-handler.sh remove"# place this file in /etc/polkit-1/rules.d otherwise the script executed will show polit/authentication error
