Yeah, that's pretty much the problem in a nutshell. No notificatons from QEMU The only immediate option i see is to run 'info block' every time we invoke virDomainGetXMLDesc(), in order to check if the CDROM media has been ejected. Mildly disgusting, but probably doable. > Also, I have a couple of minor and hackish patches for the ruby bindings > for attaching and removing devices, if someone's interested. By all means send them to this list & we'll take a look & commit them if reasonable.
