Hi, my system is FreeBSD 13.1 Release, Xfce 4.16, Thunar 4.16.11 and bsdisks
0.27. Mounting and unmounting UFS or FAT formatted USB sticks with Thunar w=
orks
fine as non-root.
But as soon as I use NTFS or exFAT formatted sticks, unmounting is impossib=
le
as a normal user. Thunar says: "Operation not permitted." And in this case
Thunar always shows two entries in locations, one for /dev/da1 and one for
/dev/da1p1.

My workaround so far: open a terminal, become root and unmount the file sys=
tem.

If I start an Xfce session with root privileges, unmounting NTFS/exFAT stic=
ks
with Thunar works.

Maybe the reason for this behavior is the usage of fusefs, but I'm not sure.
