I am using Gnome... And I have used the CD before and gotten it to eject many times before. I actually got the lsof command working and this is what it tells me.... [root@localhost ~]# lsof /media/cdrecorder COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME nautilus 5352 malespin 27r REG 3,64 53570 26124 /media/cdrecorder/DELLNIC.inf gam_serve 7765 malespin 27r REG 3,64 53570 26124 /media/cdrecorder/DELLNIC.inf To explain a little more, I upgraded kernels today and then I had to install ndiswrapper again to get my wireless card running. So I did that and the CD that is "stuck" in there had my wireless card's drivers on it. But I copied the driver files locally and ndiswrapper should be using them from the folder I put em in. But it looks like its using them from the CD, right? Does this help explain my situation better?
