Use something like # lsof |grep cdrom to determine what process this is, then deal with it appropriately. If it's a daemon {famd is a likely culprit} try sending SIGHUP first. -- AJS -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Unable to eject cdrom???
Usually it means that something is still accessing the mount point, you could try Bash#lsof | grep "/cdrom/mountpoint" To see what is still accessing the cd/dvd Thank you, Mark Adrian Coetser [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.tux-edo.co.za, http://www.thummb.com cel: +27 76 527 8789 tel: +27 11 805 2076 fax: +27 11 805 2330 -Original Message- From: Joost Kraaijeveld [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 07 February 2006 03:16 PM To: Debian-Amd64 Subject: Unable to eject cdrom???

Mounting the disc again and umount it immediately again seems to solve the problem? -- Groeten, Joost Kraaijeveld Askesis B.V.

In particular, Konqueror was bad for leaving files open, preventing you from un-mounting or ejecting CDs/DVDs. If your CD is mounted on /media/cdrom then try lsof | grep /media/cdrom Regards, Ozz. pgpBuwam54cPM.pgp Description: PGP signature
