undocking sony r505

["Robert D. Crawford" <rdc1x@comcast.net>]

I would like to be able to undock my vaio r505 and redock it.  I have
unloaded and reloaded the modules I thought were relevant for the firewire
cd-rw/dvd drive, but it still will not work without a reboot.  Doing a
google search yields no pertinent results (maybe I'm using the wrong
terms?).

Has anyone gotten this to work and if so, how?

I am using a 2.6.4 kernel on debian sid.

Thanks.
