Wouldn't that affect KsCD or (s)mplayer playing audio CDs? Or the device notifier detecting a disc in the drive and offering me options? Or Firefox reading the Linux Magazine DVD in the drive?

It's possible. But if you have a loose cable somewhere, information could be sporadic. Instead of questioning a plausible idea from a guy attempting to help, how about cracking the case and taking a look?
Fair enough. Both power and data cables secure, no difference after removing and reseating them at both ends (well, not the power cable where it emerges from the PSU). In the configuration wizard for EAC, it says "EAC detected the following drive(s) in your system. Please select which drives EAC should autoconfigure." But the list is empty. On the other hand, K3b can interrogate the drive without difficulty. -- Registered Linux User #463880 FSFE Member #1300 GPG-FP: A6C1 457C 6DBA B13E 5524 F703 D12A FB79 926B 994E openSUSE 11.2 64-bit, Kernel 2.6.31.14-0.1-desktop, KDE 4.5.2 Intel Core2 Quad Q9400 2.66GHz, 8GB DDR RAM, nVidia GeForce 9600GT -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
