I don't believe it's the case. USB devices are handled by automount in my case and I suspect DEs are not allowed to unmount if they were not the ones which actually mounted the devices (to be clear, kde control panel tick box is not checked here).

In which case, I'd check to see if something is trying to access the auto-mounted USB stick - if Dolphin has an open folder there, or if VLC is running. Paying attention to that helped me solve the un-mounting issues I had.

In my case automount works but I cannot unmount anything automounted - this happens on every DE I tried (the last three are GNOME-Cinnamon-KDE)

...the USB sticks. And, that doesn't stop you from using dd or gpart on command-line afterwards... Just less typing and trying to remember the correct flags. The option is definitely there, and there's no lock-in to use a specific method. Point being, even if you use automount, you're not stuck.

The reason i don't use automount is if i want to use dd or use gpart on the mounted partition.

Yep, and I do like the automount feature. Now if we could get the wifi roaming and GPU config straight, that would be nice.

A real purist :)

I don't like automount, i like to mount manually.

I use /Sysutils/Automount , Xorg and Openbox USB Devices have mounted without intervention Just a file to modify: /usr/local/etc/automount.conf

I am using plasma6-plasma on 14.3 latest on one machine. The kde control panel has a tick box for automount USB devices that does indeed automount USB devices.

For 'unveil' - you can check the 'Releases' page here, there's some info about future plans. From there, you can click around to get an idea for target release dates and where to get the releases (actually same place where you got your first FreeBSD installer iso to begin with). Well, I'd...

...unveil and OpenBSD. I like the idea and i hope that it ends up in the beast (FreeBSD). Also, i have successfully attached a usb stick via automount from a VirtualBox passthrough. Usually, i can write files from guests systems but the files are not being written using FreeBSD. Is there...

...and this exact issue persists. I can't get external usb to unmount with Thunar regardless of the devfs rules and permissions, use of the automount program, turning on or off "enable volume management" in the thunar preferences. Frankly there seem to be a lot of settings controls on 4.20 that...

I have the NFS mount in the /etc/fstab. The internet came back yesterday and the moment it came back, my workstation was back to up and running with the NFS shares being accessible. I'm not sure how that works because a few months ago, when I was having the same issue with the file server, the...

Show us /etc/exports from the NFS server. What do you mean bu "automount"? Are you using automountd? Or do you just have the NFS mounts in /etc/fstab on the NFS clients? We need to see the clients' configurations.
