I can confirm this bug still exists in 13.10. On my current machine, it has existed for years now, but it does not seem to be a problem on other machines I have.
Maybe this is an old broken setting that is never deleted during upgrades? (I haven't done a reinstall since 10.04, only upgrades). Could there be a way to tell the system to "re-configure" the cdrom drive to get rid of this behaviour? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/890592 Title: CD drive eject button does not work Status in Nautilus: Unknown Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “udev” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: PROBLEM On my laptop, pressing the hardware "eject" button on the DVD drive will pop out the disc, but it will still be treated as mounted by Nautilus. If I then put in another disc, it will still think that the files from the previous disc are there, as though it had not been ejected. This produces an error when I try to manipulate those files. I can't access the files from the new disc until I eject the old one using the button on Nautilus. HOW TO REPRODUCE 1. Put a CD or DVD in the drive, close it, and let Nautilus mount it. 2. Eject it using the hardware eject key. 3. Put in a new CD or DVD. EXPECTED BEHAVIOR Nautilus will know when I ejected a disc.
