As Tod Merley points out, you're trying to unmount everything
here.  You can either do 'umount <devicename>' or 'umount
<mountpoint>' to unmount the specific fs you want.  The problem
you're seeing may be because something (I assume it's Gnome)
keeps hold mounted filesystems it notices to put on the desktop.
As they're not in fstab it wont let you unomunt them by right
clicking either.  The work-around is to use the lazy unmount
option, -l.  Definitely don't do -la, as it problem can unmount /
for you.
