Is there anyone on the list who is running Suse 10.2 whose DVD drive automatically mounts media when inserted? If so, I would like to engage in a chat session to do a "stare and compare" to figure out how my setup differs, because my puter absolutely, positively refuses to automatically mount cd or dvd media. "lshal -m" will detect it's presence, Yast knows when the distro DVD is loaded, but that's it. I have fought with this problem since I installed 10.2 on 7Jan07 and it is to the point that if I cannot resolve the issue, I am kissing Suse goodbye, as the system is almost worthless to me if I cannot use the cd/dvd drive.

Mine works.
Some info will be great - post the last couple of line of your /var/log/messages log after you inserted the DVD.

Funny part is my OpenSUSE Boxed DVD does not show mounted desktop ICON but YaST sees it. This is mounted Data Backup DVD made with K3B. Hope this helps. Other point, I installed Ivman but have never configured or used it. Have you tried removing it (Ivman)? -- Russ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
