Prevent CD and DVD disks from becoming stuck
Authored by: chellman on Dec 14, '05 12:33:00PM

I changed the <real>60</real> to <integer>60</integer> and was able to load it without errors. The man page says the value should be an integer, so maybe it's ignoring the real, and thinking it's zero.

The thing I don't understand is why the hint says this will run every 540 seconds, when that number doesn't appear anyway in the sample.

Also, launchd isn't happy with the way drutil is exiting, apparently with code 1. So after a few failures, it's removed from the list of items launchd will launch. It did this when I set the StartInterval to 5 just to make sure it was working, but still.

Sigh. That's what I get for not reloading the page before posting.
