If you mount/umount the CD manually, it should be locked only when mounted, and umounting will implicitly unlock it.
Sometimes this implicit unlock on umount doesn't always work. Not sure why, it hasn't bothered me yet enough to investigate.
Colin, Try running the eject command from a text mode command line, and see if that helps. <http://lists.luv.asn.au/listinfo/luv-main>
I have been, that's what's frustrating. If the drive is empty then neither the button nor the eject command work (well most of the time, sometimes you "luck in" and it opens). Once you've got a disc in place all works as expected. I'm going to try "dev.cdrom.lock = 0" in sysctl.conf to see what that does. -- Colin Fee tfeccles@gmail.com
