[Bug 75074] Re: eject cd doesn't work and just should
josh, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux replace-with-bug-number If reproducible, could you also please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc5 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results.

I'm not on Ubuntu anymore, but on Ubuntu and on Debian I've found myself facing this issue. I feel the system should be far more liberal in dealing with the CD drive. If I am not wrong, you cannot eject a CD mounted by another user even if the other user has logged out without using super-user privileges. Seriously, what's wrong with ejecting a disk for someone else when nothing at all is using the CD?

[Bug 75074] Re: eject cd doesn't work and just should
My eject-CD-button (hardware-button on the desktop) doesn't work. I have dual boot win7/ubuntu9.10. My drives are all eSATA BIOS is AMI v 02.67 (recent) Eject-button works fine under windows7. When I boot Ubuntu without a CD in the player I can't open the tray except by using a pin (not very elegant). When I succeed in inserting a disk in the CD/DVD-player it is mounted automatically and then I can eject via software (e.g. sudo eject). To work around this problem I always see to it that a disk is inserted while booting (or I always leave a disk in the player on exit so it is there when I boot). In this way I can always use the software eject to open the tray. This is probably a bug and I would be very grateful if somebody could help me there. -- eject cd doesn't work and just should https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/75074 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Why does the physical eject button work exactly as the nautilus (right- click) eject volume action? As is the case now, when you insert a CD you will be unable to retrieve it again without unmounting, even if _no application is using it whatsoever_ This seen on a dell M1530, Jaunty. -- eject cd doesn't work and just should https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/75074 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 75074] Re: eject cd doesn't work and just should
I think that it doesn't matter if you are pressing the CD eject button, or the power button, or your laptop battery is running out of charge, or whatever, isn't there some framework to inform applications that resource X is going away within approximately Y to Z timeunit from now, there isn't anything you can do about that, act accordingly. And then the resource should just go away. And if an application didn't react to the notification, that's it's problem - no need to outright kill it, just force it to then handle the error it will get the next time it tries to use the resource - at which point it will hopefully be smart about things as well, like your CD burning software saying hey, I was in the middle of copying that to another disc, put it back or that will fail [Try Again] [Fail]. -- eject cd doesn't work and just should https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/75074 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Re: [Bug 75074] Re: eject cd doesn't work and just should
I filed this bug a while ago (I'm on 8.04 now) and can't say it's been too bad a of a problem recently. But typically the problem would arise when trying to play a DVD that was unreadable for whatever reason.. (libdvdcss2 couldn't decrypt the DVD, or if there was a scratch then ubuntu would try to read it way too long and not eject the DVD) I realize this is all kind of esoteric. I guess what would be the best solution would be that hitting the eject button killed all of the running processes that were using the dvd and then ejected it.

[Bug 75074] Re: eject cd doesn't work and just should
I sympathise with the initial reporter... yes, CD/DVD-drives can give grief to the user in Linux, and I have faced this issue myself (hence marking as confirmed). Ubuntu BTS (and most probably a number of others) contain a few reports against particular programs (like Nautilus) that sometimes prevent the ejection of a disc. Sometimes the command eject won't work, but sudo eject will, sometimes you have to repeat the sudo eject a few times, sometimes start by killing a stray process that was left behind preventing the ejection etc. See also bug #66609. I shouldn't have to fight my CD-drive. ;-) Indeed, ejecting media, especially read-only media, shouldn't be as hard as it sometimes seems to be. But how to tackle this issue, that's the difficult question... ** Changed in: Ubuntu Status: Unconfirmed = Confirmed -- eject cd doesn't work and just should https://launchpad.net/bugs/75074 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
