[opensuse] Disappearing CD/DVD ROM
Hi list, My CD/DVD drive has recently become only partially visible to applications. I use a Windows program, EAC (Exact Audio Copy) running under wine, to rip audio CDs, but it has recently stopped seeing my CD drive. I installed grip, to see if it was a wine problem, but this also can't read audio CDs in the drive. Well, it does very briefly as the drive gets mounted, in other words I see the list of tracks flash on and then off again. Grip can eject CDs, so the drive isn't completely invisible. On the other hand, smplayer plays an audio CD in the drive without a problem. I'm using openSUSE 11.2 with kernel 2.6.31.14-0.4-desktop, and KDE 4.5.2 release 10. I'm not sure when this problem started, as ripping CDs is only an occasional task, but it was definitely working OK on 5 October. Have the DRM people hacked my machine? Any suggestions, please?

My guess is that some other tool is grabbing the unit. Any of those automatic automounter tools in kde or gnome. Set them to not intervene - details vary depending on desktop. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

Not only the automounter, but also the gadgets that grab the reader if an audio cd is detected, then the other one that grabs it if it sees a movie, then the other one that... you see the trend? :-) - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

Yes, I see the trend, but I don't know what do with it :( Must have stayed up too late last night. I've looked for Configuration/Settings in each multimedia app, but nowhere is there a setting to stop each app from mounting/loading the contents of the drive. I know you use Gnome, but perhaps if you could be a bit more specific about what you would do there, I could translate it into KDE-ese. Many thanks.

I'll try, but I don't know the equivalent KDE names. In gnome, I go to the control center, and in the "look and feel" section there is an item named "removable drives and media", without icon. This dialog has tabs for storage, multimedia, cameras, pdas, printers and input devices. Storage has entries for browsing and mounting devices when inserted, or burning blank dvds. The multimedia tab has entries for playing audio cds when inserted, or pay video if a video cd/dvd is inserted, or play music when a portable player is inserted. You see, it is quite complete, although sometimes I'd like more fine grain. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.

Many thanks, Carlos. I think the KDE System Settings > Removable Devices (configure automatic handling of removable storage media) is equivalent to your Gnome Control Centre > Look and Feel > Removable Drives and Media. I have tried disabling all autoplay options here, without changing EAC's or grip's ability to read the contents of the drive. In fact EAC cannot even see the hardware, let alone read the contents of the inserted media.

It's possible. But if you have a loose cable somewhere, information could be sporadic.

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.

I shall need to brush up on the mount command to remember how to do that. What fstype is an audio CD? But it never used to need these extra steps. I've used EAC for several years, and it always finds the hardware automatically. IOW, start EAC, put an audio CD in the drive and the EAC window is immediately populated with the tracks on the CD, including length, size, gap length, etc. Something has changed in the last 3 weeks. -- 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

Just to muddy the waters, I've upgraded from 11.2 to 11.3. This required using the CD/DVD drive to writet the .iso file, using K3B, as well as reading from the drive to perform the upgrade. All went well, and I am now booted into 11.3 (but with KDE 4.4.4 ATM). I can happily report that EAC now works again, and is able to read audio CDs. :) Bob -- 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 2.6.31.14-0.4-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
