Linux is Case Sensitive! /Floppy is not in /etc/fstab, but /floppy is. Similarly /CDROM is not in /etc/fstab/, but /cdrom is. To fix, right-click on the offending icon, and under Properties -- Device, change the entry to the right device (My version even has a drop-down list of mountable devices to choose from!) Hope this helps --

Hi: I recently installed SuSE 7.0 as a fresh install and then did an update to KDE2 as part of the install. After I updated to KDE2 2.0 I
am unable to access the cdrom and floppy. When ever I try to access the
cdrom
or floppy I get an error that says unable to mount can not find /Floppy or CDROM in /etc/fstab or /etc/mstab. I have checked the icon properties and they are the same as in the KDE 1.1.2 desktop. They work in that desk top
so
why not in the new KDE2 desktop. I am including the /etc/fstab and
/etc/mtab
files for you. /etc/mtab: /dev/hda3 / reiserfs rw 0 0 proc /proc proc rw 0 0 /dev/hda1 /boot ext2 rw 0 0 usbdevfs /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs rw 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts rw 0 0 /etc/fstab: /dev/hda1 /boot ext2 defaults 1 2 /dev/hda2 swap swap defaults 0 2 /dev/hda3 / reiserfs defaults 1 1 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 usbdevfs /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs defaults 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts defaults 0 0 /dev/cdrom /cdrom auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0 /dev/fd0 /floppy auto noauto,user 0 0
I hope some one can be of help. Thanks for your help in advance. Thanks a million, that was it. I went in and pulled down the device menu in
