Sorry that you are having issues. New in 9.1 SuSE is using supermount to mount the cd and floppy drives. The icons should be found in My Computer. Supermount is supposed to eliminate the use of mounting CDs and floppies.
Great idea - if it works. :(
Seems to work for me.
How are you trying to read it? If supermount is working correctly, all you have to do is cd to the directory that the drive will mount to. Ex cd /media/cdrecorder.
'Doesn't work. I called SUSE tech. support but they didn't have an answer either.
That stinks! Hmmm.., What does the line/s for your CDRW say in the fstab? Can you force umount the drive as root? I assume that lsof /dev/cdrecorder stated that nothing was using the drive.
Correct. I have /dev/cdrom working now, but don't know yet if I can burn a CD. 'Kinda cobbed up to get it to work, but for now.............. Fred -- "The only secure Microsoft software is what's still shrink-wrapped in their warehouse..." (Forno)
