Sorry, I missed the request for drive brands/types.

Both of my drives are CD-RWs - IDE. And both are 52x32x52x. I updated the firmware on both of these drives fairly recently.

The one that is problematic as far as ejection with Intrepid is a Sony model CRX230ED. However, if my memory serves me correctly, I believe that this drive was probably actually manufactured by Lite-on.

The one that is NOT problematic as far as ejection with Intrepid is a Plextor model PX-W5224TA.

I also have a Lite-on CD-RW drive in another older computer, also 52x32x52x and I have noticed that that one also exhibits the CD ejection problems with the Ubuntu O/Ss.

I think I may be seeing a pattern here. And this really does not surprise me, because it seems that most every time that I have some problem related to a CD drive that it is a model that has been manufactured by Lite-on !!!
