I started out with woody installed from cds and apt. everything was ok,
but there were some new packages i wanted to get, but they had a whole
lot of dependencies, so i added this to sources.list:

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ unstable main non-free contrib
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ unstable main non-free contrib
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US unstable/non-US main contrib
non-free
deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US unstable/non-US main
contrib non-free

and i did a dist-upgrade. ever since, my cd drives are detected (i see
them in the startup messages), but i can't eject or mount them
(consequently i can't use them in any programs). also, is there any way
for me to add ide-scsi emulation as a module without recompiling?

any help would be AWESOME!

cheers,

the kernel 2.4.18-bf2.4 has support for ide-scsi module. (i am using it). Try to execute modprobe ide-scsi. This should load the module and allow you to use your cdrom.

Add ide-scsi in the file /etc/modules to load the module at boot time.
