Does this happen with current kernels?
Hi, I just tested it with 1.624 and the hang did not happen. I still get the "eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument." message despite the fact that it is actually ejected.
OK, kernel bug appears fixed. Deescalating, assigning back to eject.
it's strange. I did not see the above error message "eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument.", it just works for me with IDE CDROM. Could you please give more details about your CDROM (IDE/SCSI, name of CDROM)? thanks
Here are all the dmesg stuff for the CD: hdc: HL-DT-ST GCE-8481B, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive Using cfq io scheduler ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 15 Probing IDE interface ide0... ide0: Wait for ready failed before probe !

the "...Invalid argument." error is fixed in eject-2.0.13-12 or newer. thanks for your report.
