Locking CD tray w/o opening device
With a 9 month old, going on 2, in the house, I've been made painfully aware of the need to have some way to lock the CD-ROM tray. I saw a post about some patches way back in 1996 to enable user-space control of this, but haven't seen much in the way of tools to control it.
Is there any straightforward way of disabling the buttons on the CD and locking all the time? I'm not averse to an ugly hack to 2.4.18+ source if necessary.
Any suggestions?

Put in a CD and mount it....

What about the power and reset buttons?
