Quoting Carl William Spitzer IV
In suse 9.2 recently updated I now can not open the DVDRW drive either manually or with eject. I removed the device from yast rebooted and reinstalled still the light remains on as though there were a disk inside.
If your light is on all the time, it may be that you have the IDE cable in backwards. If you do this to a floppy drive the light stays on, maybe with optical drives too. I would at least check. James W
