On my desktop (8.2) I have my CD burner. I click on it to mount it and nothing happens. I right mouse on it and select mount, nada.
I go to xterm and type 'mount /dev/cdrecorder /media/cdrecorder' and I get a message back saying only root can do that. Fine, I'll show you Mr. Computer...I su and do the same. Mr. Computer says to me: 'mount: block device /dev/cdrecorder is write-protected, mounting read-only /dev/cdrecorder: Input/output error mount: you must specify the filesystem type' I say to Mr. Computer, "Bite me!" then check my fstab. It says: /dev/cdrecorder /media/cdrecorder auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0 So what's the problem.
I'm pretty pissed off at Mr. Computer. This episode reminds me of Office Space where the printer isn't working.
Any help here? Also, sorry about the 'Mr. Computer' thing. I've been hanging around my kids too much.

Hey Tom, Check your user groups, YaST2 modules->Security and users->Edit and create users Here's the list I belong to, and maybe you need to be in one or are missing one? I'm in: users,daemon,disk,uucp,dialout,audio,floppy,cdrom,video,modem,users Maybe something in here will clear it up? John - -- I needed fresh bugs for my SuSE gecko, and Linux penguin. So I went out and caught this huge ugly blue and red and green and yellow butterfly. They won't need fresh food for 3 months now. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+33FmH5oDXyLKXKQRAs0jAJ9kH3zv+XkuQCXGf/mCSw0iKPihvQCgu8Ly r5vf1HhytnJESwaLlo5UtFI= =EuPV -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
