Myron,

Used lsof as suggested and found that fam has things tied up. 
Ultimately, I don't think that fam is the culpret, since I can mount and 
umount at will from XFCE4. I think the problem is with a load-on-demand 
service in KDE called Mount Watcher, which is part of KDED. I can't kill 
Mount Watcher without killing KDED, which runs several other 
load-on-demand services. I guess I can just kill pam when I want to 
umount until someone comes up with a fix for this problem.
