If you are using a combo drive emulating a scsi drive, the device will be set as /drv/srX, where X=0,1 or another integer. On a Toshiba laptop which has a combo drive, /dev/dvd was set up a symbolic link pointing to the /dev/srX device. For example, assume that the combo drive is set to /dev/sr0. This can be checked by running the "Hardware Information" icon in YaST2. Run the following command on a shell command line : ln -s /dev/sr0 /dev/dvd After this the software dvd players should recognise the drive and play dvd. This solution worked on the PC here. LW999
