can't eject data CD's

[Desmond Rivet <rivet ecf utoronto ca>]

Hi all,

I realize that I must be becoming a pest, but does anyone else have a
problem ejecting data cd's when the cd player applet is located in a
panel?

This is truly bizarre. I can't even use the command line eject command, so
long as the cd applet is in my panel. As soon as i remove it, eject works
fine. I've sent a bug report off to where ever I'm supposed to send it
(somewhere on the GNOME website).

Does anyone know a quick fix to this that *doesn't* involve looking at
source code?

Failing that, does anyone know of a quick fix that *does* involve looking
at source code?

I'm using GNOME 1.2 that I got from helix-gnome. The installation went
rather smoothly...maybe not as smoothly as I thought?

Thanks...
