The problem is now solved. I edited the sudoers file
entering my username with the following command:
User_Alias FULLTIMERS = mak
FULLTIMERS ALL = NOPASSWD: ALL
After that, I created a link with sudo /usr/bin/xcd.sh
command, and now the program ejects the cd without
problem.
Thanks everyone for all the suggestions.
