Description of problem: eject can't eject the CDROM device since /dev/cdrom really doesn't exist any longer with hal/udev in FC3 test2(rawhide?). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): eject-2.0.13-9 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. run eject from the console (as root, even) Actual results: eject: unable to find or open device for: `cdrom' Expected results: Will eject cdrom Additional info: This is because hal/udev and the new FHS conformation makes things look at /media instead. eject is hardwired to eject /mnt/cdrom by default So doing eject /media/cdrom works. eject should be fixed to do this automatically.
Also, because now there's hal/udev, on an x86 laptop, it created mountpoints for /media/dvdrom. Running eject, fails again
Rather, I'd think /dev/cdrom* should be created.
i cannot reproduce this probleme on my machine with udev/hal enable. how do you mount your cdrom? using automount? what is the cdrom mount device and mounntpoints? could you please send me the output of "cat /proc/mounts" after cdrom is mounted and the /etc/fstab. Thanks
i have upload a test version of eject, which probably fixes this problem. please let me know if this problem is fixed. Thanks ftp://people.redhat.com/than/rawhide/eject-2.0.13-10.i386.rpm
