Heihei,

I had a really strange situation today when presenting the new school computer 
and using CD-ROM. I had tested everything yesterday, just this I forgot. *gg* 
I have activated "device icons" for CD-ROM and floppy icons on my kiosk 
profiles. I also had activated the option:
General --> Disable execution of arbitrary .desktop files.

Well, now I clicked on the CD-ROM icon and the CD got mounted and no problems, 
but then I wanted to unmount or eject the CD-ROM again, but I just got no 
permissions to do it. *hmmmmm* This is maybe bit userunfriendly to shutdown 
the PC to get the CD back ;) Or have I something wrong here. On the console 
it is no problem to unmount, just in KDE I haven't found any way to do it 
again.

Better would be if you can allow unmounting of  the KDE devices, but still 
disable other .desktop files? Or at least also disallow to mount a device, 
because it is bit stupid when you cannot get it out again. Hope this can get 
fixed, or someone can tell me how to do it right. 

Thank you very much!


Regards,
Klaus
