BACKGROUND==SuSE 8.0 just works fine to me. So I'm afraid of making some upgrade that can corrupt my system. I'm giving a chance to trying new kernels with newer Gnome and KDE: I decided to install Slackware 9.1.
THE PROBLEM==I have two devices for reading cd-rom: /media/cdrom (in SuSE it points to my Creative 4x CD-ROM reader); and /media/cdrecorder (in SuSE it points to my LG combo CD-RW + DVD-ROM) Untill this moment I don't understand why Slackware 9.1 had found LG combo device as /mnt/cdrom and yet not found the another drive (Creative CD-ROM reader). It was so easy with SuSE...Some ideas? (What had SuSE done automatically that shoudl be make manually in Slackware?) a.
