Description Waldo Bastian 2004-09-14 17:20:10 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.0)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
OS:                Linux

I had a really strange situation today when presenting the new school computer
and using CD-ROM. I had tested everything yesterday, just this I forgot. *gg*
I have activated "device icons" for CD-ROM and floppy icons on my kiosk
profiles. I also had activated the option:
General --> Disable execution of arbitrary .desktop files.

Well, now I clicked on the CD-ROM icon and the CD got mounted and no problems,
but then I wanted to unmount or eject the CD-ROM again, but I just got no
permissions to do it. *hmmmmm* This is maybe bit userunfriendly to shutdown
the PC to get the CD back ;) Or have I something wrong here. On the console
it is no problem to unmount, just in KDE I haven't found any way to do it
again.

Better would be if you can allow unmounting of  the KDE devices, but still
disable other .desktop files? Or at least also disallow to mount a device,
because it is bit stupid when you cannot get it out again. Hope this can get
fixed, or someone can tell me how to do it right.

Same problem, KDE 3.2.3, Debian packages.

I have discovered that after opening CD, there is "kdeinit: kio_audiocd audiocd ..." in process list (although data CD is in question) and ejecting is not possible while this process is present. If I kill it, ejecting works immediately.
