Comment 151 for bug 283316

 I believe that these problems involving CD drive ejection are drive
brand specific. Is the FIRMWARE (not to be confused with driver) on
your CD device on the latest version available ?

 I just installed the latest daily build 10-12-2009 (alternate) of
Karmic on an older machine of mine and the CD ejection functions fine.
