More information: TDE handles a HAL eject and a
TDEHWLib
eject the exact same way, via a call to kdeeject, which then calls
eject. As eject used to rely on HAL, I would not be a bit surprised if the
'eject' binary is broken on Slackware 14 (the ioctl errors would support this
hypothesis).
At this point I don't think eject is broken. As mentioned in a previous post, eject
and icon disappearance is working on Slackware 14 with Xfce 4.10 and KDE 4.8.5. More,
Slackware 14 is being heavily tested by many people and nobody is reporting breakage with
eject.
As I mentioned, for the moment I'm suspecting a not-so-obvious build issue. I
don't see any kdebug options to monitor kdeeject. I suppose I could temporarily enable
all kdebug options and then watch stdout.
