We've observed the same behavior (hal-0.4.2-6-EL4). In some cases what seems to trigger this condition is when playing certain audio CDs, and in particular, if the audio CD is an 'enhanced' CD with data/application that can be run on a regular Windows O/S, it seems to leave hal in the state where eject will no longer work. In some cases a stop/start of haldaemon will clear the condition. root will always be able to eject the CD (while a non-privileged user cannot); else a reboot is the only recourse to restore eject functionality. Agreed, quite annoying. Thank you for submitting this issue for consideration in Red Hat Enterprise Linux. The release for which you requested us to review is now End of Life. Please See https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata/ If you would like Red Hat to re-consider your feature request for an active release, please re-open the request via appropriate support channels and provide additional supporting details about the importance of this issue. |
