[ale] shifting permissions

[Jim]

This brings up a question.  On Suse 9.3, when I plug in an SD card into 
an attached card reader, a window pops up displaying all the files.  
Since it's not a good idea to remove said card unless it's unmounted, 
how do you unmount it without actually issuing the umount command?  I 
ask this because my attempts to educate my wife on command line usage 
has failed miserably and she likes to use her camera card to store 
images to take to have photos printed after she's edited them. 

Thanks,
Jim.
