Hi All
this one is going to hack off a lot of users
if Freevo is loaded and you burn either a CD or DVD with MP3 or similar 
media files, you can not as a user unmount or eject the CD or DVD once
its burnt.
You find your CD/DVD stuck in the drive with K3B unable to eject it.
If you try to unmount and eject by right clicking on the desktop icon
you get the message that only freevo can unmount it.
Luckily it lies and root can unmount and eject.
I suspect its going to cause users to hit the reset button and a lot of
swearing.
I upgraded from 8.10, I'm downloading todays snapshot to do a clean
install and see if the same happens.

Best wishes
