>Description:
doing "eject -l" with an empty CD-ROM drive (just to close the
tray) produces the following rather confusing error message:

vever# eject -l cdrom
eject: ioctl: CDIOCCLOSE: /dev/rcd0d: Operation not supported by device
vever#

Of course the driver supported retracting the tray and closing the
door. I don't think it should complain so bitterly and cryptically,
though, that there is no media in the tray.

At the same time this message is logged in the kernel log:

cd0(pciide0:1:1): not ready, data = 00 00 00 00 3a 00 00 00 00 00

>How-To-Repeat:
See above.

Sorry, don't know.
