I am having a problem ejecting the CDROM after booting the system from the CDROM. (Just whiy I am booting from the CDROM is another problem which has me seriously contemplating a change in Linux distributions.).
When I go to the Device Notifier and select Eject I get the following message:
"Cannot eject the disc. one or more files on this disc are open with an application"
Now, I get the following:
computation@abnormal:~> lsof /media/CDROM COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME konsole 8335 computation cwd DIR 11,0 6144 1856 /media/CDROM
Killing 8335 closes the Konsole I was using, but the Device Notifier does the same thing, nothing, and gives me the same error message.
you need to either a) change dir directory away from /media/CDROM (try cd /) b) start the console from another location (cd /; konsole &) if a, problem solved, eject will work. if b, close the initial konsole and the new one won't me in /media/CDROM Also, one presumes that ~ is something like /home/user instead if /media/CDROM ..? (because if the latter, then a is certainly the problem - you are in '~' which is /media/CDROM) Phil curses damn gmail not replying to the list right.. curses damn gmail with its html mail included or is it curses damn list for being overly picky? gmail sends plain text too... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
