With the current updated kernel (from update manager) I have just tried to reproduce the issue, but it didn't reappear.
So I hope that the issue is already fixed, but I am not 100% sure, because I have ejected the drive only around 20 times with no issue, but maybe the bug could reappear later. michael@quad:~$ uname -a Linux quad 3.2.0-27-generic-pae #43-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 6 15:06:05 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux So if you have encountered the problem before, please do some tests after installing the latest updates and rebooting the machine. If anyone still encounters this problem after installing the latest updates, please let us know, then we can do further testing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/986845 Title: ejecting cd/dvd sometimes fails To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/986845/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
