Unable to see DVD/CD-Rom with suse 9.1
This is odd. I do not know if it has much to do with the automount thing everyone talks about but there is no way I cant access my cdrom. If I go through nautilus it apologizes (very polite) for not being able to display all contents. I try to mount it by console, umount it, list it, whatever. No way, I even try mounting it as an iso 9660 directly (with the old suse options) and that will not work either. Pretty desperate here. Already over 1 hour lost with this. Some hints???????????

I have tried adding to fstab /dev/hdc /media/cdrom iso9660 user,noauto,exec,suid,ro,iocharset=iso8859-15 0 0 I have tried adding a line in the fstab as it was in my previous fstab (for suse 8.2) nothing worked. tryed mounting and umounting manually would not work. It does not complain when I mount it (and a new entry on /etc/mtab appears) but when I try to read it it still says medium not found. My dvd is correctly detected (and has always been) as a toshiba dvd-rom. Also tried with different CDs just to see whether it was the CD the problem Nothing. hints, please, I'm pretty much lost here.

Check /var/log/messages for errors. I had to disable DMA for my CD-RW on SUSE 9.1. Something may be wrong with my machine but I rather think the problem is with the 2.6 kernel. -- A.M.
