This is still a problem in Jaunty, and it's not specific to Dell laptops
either: I have the same problem on my (completely generic, self-built,
with generic DVD drive) desktop.
To summarise: the eject button works fine if no disc is in the drive or
if one is in the drive but not mounted. If a mounted disc is in there,
it has no effect.
I'm also reopening it. The idea that "nothing can be done" about it is
surely wrong: Most Linux distros (including, as Rene Horn poitns out
above, Ubuntu in days past), not to mention Windows, apparently handle
the eject button perfectly fine. So there certainly can't be a
fundamental reason it is impossible to make it work as users expect.
No?
