I have a similar system. Maybe this information will give a clue. Sometimes KDE apps are slow to let go of a drive. My system does not list the cdrom as mounted even when konqueror has it open! You might run mount to see if it is in the list. If so, try umount -l /dev/cdrom. This feature is all new to me, by the way. I didn't know konqueror would do these things. I have SuSE 8.2, KDE 3.1.1 with kernel 2.4.20-64GB-SMP. I tried to mount the audio CD via right click and it said "...busy...". In user konqueror, I put in audiocd:/dev/ and all the tracks showed up as files. They copied just fine, but as .cda files. I didn't get wav. My ls /dev/cdrom gives: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2003-09-23 23:22 /dev/cdrom -> sr0 (It is a SCSI cdrom player.) However, when I look at /dev/cdrom in the konqueror file browser window, I get: cdrom 0B Block Device 14-Mar-03 08:07 rw- --- --- jak cdrecording -> sro Strange that they would simultaneously show different information about the link. Maybe Konqueror shows info for the link and ls shows info for what it points to.
