I'm sorry I didn't realize sooner that there was a response to this...

The log message shows that it has been mounted twice.

This is completely reproduceable.  Every time I put a CD or DVD into
my drive it's mounted twice and I cannot unmount or eject it without
switching to root first.

Here's a few more messages:

umount: it seems /media/dvdrecorder is mounted multiple times

(now it's only mounted once and everything works as it should)

back to the original messages:
Nov 21 00:00:32 home hal-subfs-mount[24983]: MOUNT_POINT:: /media/dvdrecorder
Nov 21 00:00:32 home hal-subfs-mount[24983]: MOUNTPOINT:: /media/dvdrecorder

I don't know the difference between "MOUNT_POINT" and "MOUNTPOINT",
but I suspect that my DVD drive is in a configuration file somewhere
twice.  I haven't been able to find documentation on this, though.

I already checked /etc/fstab, just in case.  The drive mounts twice
even if I take it out of that file completely.

Does anyone have any idea how to configure hal?

Thank you,
