Last year I was using Region X on my Powerbook to use different region specified DVDs. Recently the drive's eject mechanism failed, so Apple replaced it. Unfortunately Region X no longer works with the new drive... Any suggestions? Thanks..

If you read this, you will understand why it doesn't work anymore: http://xvi.rpc1.org/region.html Looks like it only works on region free drives (apple probably installed one with a region) , so you would have to update the drive's firmware to a region free one. How to do this, I don't know.
