Public bug reported: ITEM the FIRST: Lucid seems to have some issue with unmounting optical drives after a disc has been ejected via the physical button on the drive, as well as not automatically mounting (that is, autorunning/reading: it still seems to recognize when a disc is present). So far I haven't run into an issue where Lucid won't see an optical drive that is properly jumpered and connected. Also, despite having the floppy drive disconnected and disabled in the BIOS, Lucid still mounts a floppy folder in the media drive. This is because, for whatever reason, fstab seems to default to having a floppy listing.
ITEM the SECOND: So far I've had success by opening 'Computer' with Nautilus, right-clicking the media in question and selecting 'unmount' or 'eject'. Trouble arises when ejecting disks from the drive rather than the software, as Lucid won't automatically unmount. ITEM the THIRD: Initial attempt was to edit fstab so that Lucid would have explicit instructions on what to do with its optical drives. Spent some time looking up fstab examples and documentation to figure out what options would make it work. Attempts so far didn't work out, but I have a feeling this will be the best fix until Canonical releases a patch. Regarding the floppy issue, removing its line from fstab keeps the floppy from appearing in Nautilus, but it still seems to be mounted under '/media/floppy'. Haven't figured out why.
