I have installed KDE2 on my SuSE 6.4 system, and really don't have any complaints except for one.

While logged on as a regular user, I can't use my cd-rom drive. If I try to mount it, it says I don't have permission. KSCD just sits there without ever recognizing the audio CD in the drive.

I'm just at a loss as to where to look. It works fine if I log in as root, or start kde1, gnome, icewm, etc. But NOT under KDE2.

Have a look at where KDE2 is looking for the CD-ROM drive and the mount point. The KDE2 RPMs are not fully adjusted to SuSE Linux yet (we are working on that for the next distribution) - I guess it is not using /cdrom as the mount point.

I took a look, and the config showed it as /dev/cdrom. So I changed it to /cdrom. Now the screen shows "ejected" and does nothing. If I exit KDE2 and change to su, start kde2 again, it shows /dev/cdrom, and plays with no problem. So I thought I'd try /dev/hdc for both. Again, it works in su mode, but not in regular user mode. I'm stumped..
