Hi all,
Sometimes I have a CD/DVD go bad etc and it will not come out of the CD reader. As root I try the eject command and it will not work saying that the CD is busy. So far I've ended up rebooting to get the !"§$ CD out. Is there a way to force the eject command to work without rebooting?
Thanks,
JIM
Not clear whether this is when burning or when reading, and which applications you are having a problem with. If it is a data CD try manually unmounting before ejecting. It this fails this most likely means the device is still in use by the application or a process of the application that you last accessed the CD/DVD with. Close the application if possible. If the application has crashed it is possible that the process accessing the device is still running in the background. Use ps to find the process and kill it. Cannot really give info on what to look for without further details. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGXwMMasN0sSnLmgIRAkBRAJ0YqWc9Try+TJThbYSly+CJbIZOSgCeLeqB m+gfBAcrJVX+sv7k/vZxUho= =9qYu -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
