Minor problem with brasero

I've seen this in both the 32 and 64 bit beta. I have Brasero set to generate and check the md5sum of an image. At the end of the burn, it runs the check on the CD/DVD just burnt. Which works fine, until the very end, when I get this popup:
Code: Select all
Please eject the disc from "MATSHITA DVD-RAM UJ-862" manually.
The disc could not be ejected though it needs to
be removed for the current operation to continue.
Not a major problem, but a bit of an annoyance. When the disc is ejected, the burn is fine, and the burn panel is reporting success.
Paul.

What gives eject -vr /dev/cdrom and does this command work for your drive?

As below:
Code: Select all
tigger[iso]$ eject -vr /dev/cdrom
eject: device name is `/dev/cdrom'
eject: expanded name is `/dev/cdrom'
eject: `/dev/cdrom' is a link to `/dev/sr0'
eject: `/dev/sr0' is mounted at `/media/SMS.Native.CD'
eject: unmounting device `/dev/sr0' from `/media/SMS.Native.CD'
eject: `/dev/sr0' is not a multipartition device
eject: trying to eject `/dev/sr0' using CD-ROM eject command
eject: CD-ROM eject command succeeded
The other thing I noticed was at the end of the checksum, the CD was mounted. Don't know if that is significant.

So eject did work.
You can try to deactivate automount in Thunar/XFCE settings.

Yes, doesn't seem to be any problems with eject itself.

The automount seems a bit variable - doesn't happen every time. When it does happen, it seems to be happening at the begining of the checksum phase. I've built the xfce mount applet, and I use it to unmount the CD when it does mount. Doesn't seem to make any difference to the error, which only occurs right that the end of the checksum phase.
Earlier versions of Brasero has 'eject' as a selectable item, but the new version doesn't seem to.
Another oddity - Brasero no longer remembers the burn speed that has been selected in earlier use - always defaults to maximum speed.
Other than that, I'm finding it more reliable in burning, especially with RW media - used to get quite a few errors on RW CDs, but the rate has fallen quite a bit with the new version of Brasero (or is there an updated cdtools?).

Sorry, I have no real idea because I don't burn data CDs anymore. Only audio CDs with burncdda

I'm wondering if gnome-mount has anything to do with it. I vaguely remember that brasero used to need it to eject on some hardware. Or something like that. Do you have it installed?

I don't remember seeing that before, but we already have gnome-mount anyway.
