My desktop is 10.0-CURRENT r228926. I am running 9.0-RC3 on my laptop. I mention 
RC3 because the problem there is about to become a RELEASE problem.

Neither machine can read CDs. I also cannot eject CDs on the laptop after the 
failed attempts to read it because it doesn't seem to stop trying to read it.

If pre-RELEASE is any indication, this is going to flood GNATS.
