Gnome in sarge handles this. Ubuntu is using gnome, although a newer version
than the one in sarge
I'm told that also kde 3.4 should handle this. We are using kde 3.3
On KDE-installations I install usbmount to handle usb-devices, but I have not
found a way to handle the CD automaticly, but here is how to do things with autofs

in /etc/auto.misc, make sure this line exists:
 cd              -fstype=iso9660,ro,nosuid,nodev :/dev/cdrom

in /etc/auto.master, add this line
 /var/autofs/misc /etc/auto.misc --timeout=30

then restart autofs. 
Now you can either access the CD from /var/autofs/misc/cd, or you can create a
symlink from the users Desktop
 ln -s /var/autofs/misc/cd ~user/Desktop

or like I prefer it, a link in /media , and then from the Desktop to /media
 ln -s /var/autofs/misc/cd /media
 ln -s /media/cd ~user/Desktop

(not sure why I prefer that, but anyway)

The cd will be unmounted after 10 seconds of inactivity, and then it's possible
to eject the CD. It's also possible to right-click on the device-list in
konqueror, and eject the cd from there. 

Please let us complete sarge, and start working on etch, to get this matter
solved there.
