Arch Linux - Must Install 'Eject'?

Ok, I've been working on my Linux skills a little bit and installed ArchLinux which installs to a CLI environment and I have to basically build the system from the ground up.  If I want a media player, I have to install it (using pacman... not 'Pac-Man', it is for 'Package Manager').  If I want my computer to use screensavers, I have to install the screensaver program...  Now this was a little bit crazier, if I would like to be able to eject the CD tray via the physical button on the device or through the software on the computer I have to install 'Eject'. Wow.

  1. I'm really impressed with your writing skills and also with the layout on your weblog. Is this a paid theme or did you customize it yourself? Either way keep up the nice quality writing, it's rare to see a great blog like this one these days.

    1. Customized myself. I didn't do anything too complex though. If I remember right it was using the standard options (background Picture/Color, Font Size/Style/Face, etc.)

      I definately need to come up with some more posts... been way too long since I have done any. Thanks for the read!
