Right Click - Eject is not working


I'm using Gnome. I installed eject and gnome mount volume. I have hal and dbus added to my daemons. When I right click and hit eject with a mounted CD, I get an error that says can't run command.

for eject to work, you must have write access to the disc device, check /dev/... what group and access rights are set for the device of the CD drive. Then add your user to the group (if the device has group rw) or reconfigure udev to set the access rights more fitting.

this was a blind shot, maybe you could post the exact error?
what happens if you type in the command in a console window?
