Same here. 

I can't use eject to eject my cdrom. When issued (even as root), I get:

eject: unable to eject, last error: Inappropriate ioctl for device

How can I fix it? 

My info:

eject: eject_2.0.13deb-7

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 8 Aug 18 12:17 /dev/cdrom -> /dev/sr0

$ uname -r
2.4.25-1-386

debian testing
