Well, I don't think all is OK now. Indeed, with yesterday's daily build, I too was able to eject the CD. But I still could not access thr drive in xfburn. Having a closer look at /dev/cd0, I discovered that it is a character device belonging to root:tty ! This was er.. slightly unexpected. I don't remember if it was a character device before, but I do remember its group was 'cdrom', as I would expect. Changing ownership back to cdrom in the hope to be able to burn CDs as a normal user again did not help, but additionally prevented ejection like before. Some days earlier, when ejecting still failed out of the box, I used ktrace/kdump on both 'eject /dev/cdrom' and 'camcontrol eject cd0'. In eject, /dev/cd0 is opened, and the ioctl returns an error. In camcontrol (which indeed ejects the CD), cd0 is mentioned nowhere, so without the source or actual debugging, I don't see how to get a clue about how and why it succeeds. Unfortunately, kdump-tools is currently uninstallable.
