Only one of mine will. Oh wait, I only have 1 tray loader. The other drive
is a slot loader.
I have 2 teac 32x cdroms at work. For some reason, on one drive, the
controller reports no capabilities and it won't eject w/o a disk in, and it
won't load when I attempt to mount. They are the exact same model, just the
one that doesn't do this is older. According to /proc/scsi/scsi both are the
same model/rev. setcd reports that it isn't set to auto close tray and it
can't change it.

I'm using a new version of eject. That's why I posted a trace of it opening
and sending IOCTLs. It *IS* a kernel issue. CDROMEJECT won't eject my CDRW
if there's no disc in the tray. The kernel will eject any slot in my
changer regardless if there is a cd in the slot.
