Re: Can't eject a previously mounted CD?

If you are on debian i have noticed recently that gnomevfs (on unstable) requires famd. famd will open /cdrom after it is mounted and run a dir notification on it. now i think famd needs some fixing, firstly to not bother running dir notice on ro filesystems, and secondly allow an authorised user (other than the original program (in this case nautilus)) to drop specific mount point dirs from the notification list. so yes this is a userland problem as far as i can see.
