If you want solid actions to pop up automatically when you enter certain

Yes, and it is the convenience they want. First I need to apologize in that
I didn't supply sufficient information. I am running 11.0 with KDE3.5 You
give the following excellent guidance but is useless in this situation
because I do not have the /solid/actions/ directories. Do you think I
could create them and it would work?

Nope. Solid is one of the many great KDE4 features, missing in KDE3.

I'm afraid I don't know how to accomplish the same in KDE3.

But one option would be to just add a .desktop file/shortcut to the desktop
that runs 'vlc -f dvd:///dev/dvd' ... then all they have to do is pop in the
dvd - and click on the desktop icon.

You could do the same for audio CDs and whichever audio CD player you prefer.
