Re: CD-ROM eject
Then should it be reported as a bug? Just because in gnome there is no problem
with eject. And therefore it should not be in kde too.
For now I using the following lines in my sysctl.conf file:
dev.cdrom.autoclose=0
dev.cdrom.lock=0
I know it might be dangerous is used not carefully, but at least there is no
problems with eject anymore.
