Install cd won't eject after install

[tad1073]

After installing Ubuntu 8.10 X86_64 cd will not eject when prompted. After my system restarts, cd boots up and I select boot from first hdd, I then try to eject the cd from the right click menu. The cd tray opens then closes immediately afterward. You have to have quick hands to get the cd from the tray.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Did you use the alternate text based disk or the live disk?

I used the live cd.

Since this report have a long time without activity, could you check (if is possible) in latest version included in Karmic if this issue is still happening? Thanks in advance.

Using 10.04 alpha 2 now, don't know if the bug is still in the 8.10 cd

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, I am closing it because the bug has been fixed in the latest development version of Ubuntu - Lucid Lynx. It won't be fixed in previous versions of Ubuntu because the package doesn't fit the requirements for backporting. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports for more information.
