[opensuse] DVD Mount problem
Just installed SUSE 10.2. for some reason I cannot see the DVD drive with and applications except YaST. I am able to install software and installed the system from DVD. When I try k3b or kdar they do not see my dvd. There is no entry in fstab or mtab for the dvd. YaSt hardware so it. When I try mounting the dvdrecorder or hdc it says there is no entry infstab or mtab. My cdrw mounts fine and is visible. Do I need an entry in FSTAB and what should it look like? Google show several answers but I'm not sure which apply. This device was working fine on 10.0. Any help would be greatly appreciated so I can restore my home data from my kdar archive. Thanks in advance. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

How do you mount the cdrw? What desktop environment do you use? In 10.2, KDE and gnome are responsible for automounting things. If you don't use one of those, you have to install ivman and configure it

You don't need an entry in fstab to mount a disc, but if you don't, you have to give both the device and the mount point to the mount command -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

ivman works OOTB. -`J' -- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Depends on what you want to achieve. It's very configurable (btw: for those who missed it, as I did, OOTB = out of the box) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Just to let you know I just installed ivman from the dvd drive with YaSt. So it must be something related to KDE. I have KDE version 3.5.5. release 45.2 and linux 2.6.18.2-34-default. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

How do you mount the cdrw? I just put CD in the drive and it is mounted. No entry in fstab but there is one in mtab. I installed 10.2 with KDE from the boxed version DVD. It apparently set this up.

You don't need an entry in fstab to mount a disc, but if you don't, you have to give both the device and the mount point to the mount command
I tryed mount /dev/dvdrecorder and mount /dev/hdc? Same message from both. Again Yast reads the dvd but I see not mounted Icon on desktop like cdrw gives. The device Icons are all checked to turn on. It appears KDE is not mounting it. What can I check? Thanks for your response. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

No, I said you had to give both mount /dev/hdc /dev/cdrecorder but it should work in kde by default. I'd suggest you open a bug report -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
