Dear jt:

However, I don't exactly understand that second part of your request. Are you saying that the contents of the storage-rules file as it stands right now will give you a trail of ALL of the events that you want to see or are you wanting me to capture the contents of that file after each of the 3 stages that you list, which if I am understanding this correct would require me to do a complete reinstallation of Intrepid from scratch. If that is the case, then I might be willing to take my CD drive out of the machine that I have the installation on now and move it to another very similar machine that I have yet to get installed and try it on that one. I don't want to risk messing up the configuration I have on this machine (I have worked too long to get it working just like I want it). Let me go on to say that I think this problem with the CD ejection not working correctly is dependent on the brand/type of drive that is being used in the machine. I say that because when I first did the installation on the machine that I am typing this on now (my main machine) that I had another brand of CD-RW drive in the machine and when I did the Ubuntu install with that brand drive in the machine I did not have the problem once I had applied all of the Ubuntu updates. But then after doing that installation, I decided to change some of the hardware in this machine and one of those was to take that brand CD-RW out of the machine and replace it with another which I consider to be a more desirable drive. And when I did that, when I reinstalled the O/S with this other brand of CD-RW in the machine that I had the problem that was not resolve by just installing all of the updates but I had to indeed run the 2 commands that I found in a post on the Ubuntu forums.

Let me know if you want me to reconfigure the other machine and I will give it a try when I get a chance but IT MAY BE A WHILE.

Thanks.
