I have tried two of the fixes mentioned above. I changed the 60-persistent-storage.rules file using udev 124-8. This did nothing to solve the problem. Next I upgraded to udev 124-9 from Intrepid proposed. This did not work for me with either the original 60-persistent-storage.rules file or the modified one. The only way I can get the tray to eject without immediately closing is to first unmount the volume and eject it with the button on the drive. You have to depress this button once to begin the eject and a second time during the ejection process to keep the tray open. An eject -v appears to work correctly, but the drive closes immediately. With the same drive this problem does not occur on Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron". Is there addition information I could provide to help solve this critical problem?
