I'd suggest setting up the program with consolehelper instead, and
skip sudo
altogether.
Can not do. At least not in this case.
eject HAS to be done by root (I even tried with 777 permission on the
actual device node to see if there was any hope of doing it through /
etc/security/console.perms) - and needs to be done without any kind of
password - it's called by gtkpod when gtkpod exits.
I certainly don't want to run gtkpod as root via console helper.
