[suse-multimedia-e] Problems with drives under suse 8.1

Hi All,

I have a problem with a pretty standard default Suse 8.1 installation where
by I have one Philips 1200 CD rewriter & a panasonic 106s dvd drive and Suse
seems to be reconising them wrong.
If I stick a dvd in the dvd drive it gets mounted under /dev/cdrecorder !!
I'm also unable to mount/play any audio cd's in either drive although sound
works fine. (Yes they both have audio cables connected from them to my sound
card)

I'm a bit of a Linux newbie so I may just be being totally stupid but I'm a
Windows (hiss, boo) IT techie by day and like to think I know a bit when it
comes to solving problems but I could do with some help with this
PLLLEEEEASSSSEEEEE.

>From what I've read/learned the entries in FSTAB have a lot to do with drive
allocation so the lines that relate to my drives are as follows:

/dev/cdrom /media/cdrom auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0
/dev/cdrecorder /media/cdrecorder auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0
/dev/dvd /media/dvd auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0

Any help with solving these problems would be gratefully received......

Gary.
