Hi folks,
I have a strange problem with ejecting CDs from my CD drive.
As root:
eject and eject -t work flawlessly
eject -T gives
ioctl: Input/output error
As non-root user:
eject -t closes the tray as expected
eject gives
eject: unable to eject, last error: Inappropriate ioctl for device
eject -T gives the same result as for root
It doesn't matter whether I do or do not specify sr0 as the device to
eject. The non-root user that I try to execute this command as is in
the optical group.
I have the same problem on two different machines: my trusty old desktop
and a Dell Latitude E6510. Also, all this did work before and stopped
working some time not so long ago. So, given that it did work before
and happens on two rather different machines, I suspect it to be a
result of some package upgrade. Unfortunately, I don't know exactly
when this started happening.
Does anybody else experience this type of problem? Does anybody have
any pointers what may be wrong with my setup?
Thanks,
Norbert
