In my case the cdrom tray refuse to open or close either by pressing the cdrom eject button or by using eject command; after applying the patch provided by xtknight I'm still experiencing the same problem. I try several options with eject command and notice that if I use the "-s" option (using SCSI) i get the next result:

aalonso@aalonso-linux:~$ eject -v -s /dev/dvd
eject: device name is `/dev/dvd'
eject: expanded name is `/dev/dvd'
eject: `/dev/dvd' is a link to `/dev/scd0'
eject: `/dev/scd0' is not mounted
eject: `/dev/scd0' is not a mount point
eject: `/dev/scd0' is not a multipartition device
eject: trying to eject `/dev/scd0' using SCSI commands
eject: SCSI eject succeeded

But still cdrom doen't eject, find attached a hardware description of my pc, and find below the steps to apply the patch:

sudo mkdir /usr/local/src/eject

cd /usr/local/src/eject

sudo deb apt-get source eject

cd eject-2.1.5

sudo wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13309417/eject_2.1.5-6ubuntu1.debdiff

sudo patch -p1 < eject_2.1.5-6ubuntu1.debdiff

sudo apt-get build-dep eject

sudo apt-get install devscripts build-essential fakeroot

sudo debuild -us -uc

sudo dpkg --install ../eject_2.1.5-6ubuntu1_*.deb
