I had this problem until I found that my device was going south. It would work intermitently, and then not at all. When I put in a new cdrom device, it worked fine. YMMV............ed

Hallo,

the Alpha 2 is working fine here but I ve no DVD-device any longer. Normally, under 10.2, it s device hda because my harddisk are SATA and there is only one IDE-controller in the system.

Any hints?

the device is now /dev/sr0 it was definitly /dev/hda before

I see exactly the same problem: From dmesg: SCSI device sda: write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA sda: sda1 sda2 sda3 sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi disk sda sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 0 scsi 1:0:0:0: CD-ROM MATSHITA DVD-RAM UJ-830S 1.02 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 scsi 1:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 5 BIOS EDD facility v0.16 2004-Jun-25, 1 devices found sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 24x/24x writer dvd-ram cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20 sr 1:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 # mount /dev/sr0 /mnt mount: special device /dev/sr0 does not exist My device was previously /dev/hdb as I recall although it may have been hdc I am running latest Factory: # cat /etc/SuSE-release openSUSE 10.3 (i586) Alpha3 VERSION = 10.3 Cheers -- Peter Nixon http://www.peternixon.net/ PGP Key: http://www.peternixon.net/public.asc --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
