Public bug reported: When I press the button on my CD/DVD drive the CD doesn't eject. This is a bug. I don't care if it's mounted. I don't care if it's use. When I press that button, it should come out. I understand that forcefully unmounting a file system is in general a bad idea. Data can be corrupted, be lost or disappear into thin air -- but not on a read- only mount of a read only CD.
I shouldn't have to hold down the button. I shouldn't have to reboot my computer. Xine shouldn't lock up because I wanted my disc and neither should mplayer. They should exit gracefully and my disc should come out so that I can throw it on my desk full of other randon crap. I shouldn't have to fight my CD-drive. If I put in a scratched or otherwise damaged disc (unbeknownst to me) there should be some timeout period where it gives up and stops trying to mount it -- this makes things hang. It's annoying. Give me back my disc. Please, thanx :-) ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- 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
