Try 'users' instead of 'user'.  The 'users' option allows any user to
mount & unmount the device again even if you weren't the one to mount
it. The 'user' option should do the same thing for ordinary users,
except that only the user who mounted the device is allowed to unmount
it.  Don't know how FC3 manages cdroms, etc.  You may find you also have
to add yourself to a cdrom users group.  Does

grep cdrom /etc/group

turn up anything?  If it does there's a cdrom group and you need to be a
member.

Cheers
