I have a acer timeline 4810 tg and windows 7 / kubuntu and using mainly Windows 7 for now.

 (because it runs better, the laptop is getting very hot when running Linux because the Intel Gnu and ATI Gpu are running at 100% :( , but that is off topic)

 But the Cd-ROM drive behave the same on Windows 7 (not good) If you put a Cd / DVD inside it runs good, but after ejecting and closing again (with the same or other Cd /DVD) the drive just keep spinning and the disk is not accessible and if you push the eject it's not responding ... but sometimes after a 10 minutes or so the disk ejects. the only way is to reboot if you want to switch disk.

Sometimes it will work normal but 99% of the time it will not.

Under Linux the problem looks the same so maybe the problem is not Linux but the laptop.??
