Re: Unmounting CD/DVD Drives on FC5

[Otto Rey <otto_rey@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

FC5 have a lot of problem with privilegies when you switch users. Most commons are with sound devices and cd/dvd devices. For example if you switch user (without clossing the current session), the new session have no sound, because sound devices have exclusive privilegies for the first user (session). If you chown your /dev/(dvd device) to the current user, you can umount/eject DVD without restarting your computer.
