I haven't mounted any CDs or DVDs since I booted. My normal use of CDs is for ripping to flac, which is how I come to have used eject so much recently [ not yet ready to test flac, I need to build more packages and get to stuff that isn't in the book ]. And yes, it should work without a CD inserted. Guess I'm still tired. Seems, its a different problem for me, perhaps specific to eudev. I'll need to check the details against an older system - the /dev/cdrom and /dev/dvd symlinks exist, owned by root:root, but the underlying /dev/sr0 is correctly mode 660 but also owned by root:root. Looks as if the symlinks are supposed to be owned by root:cdrom, but I don't see how that could ever work and I need to boot to an older system to check that. <sigh/> I guess I have to award your systemd-udev Makefile a point in this case :-) ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, dieses Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
