Forgot to give link http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/aoezcan_cdrom.html Ok I found this reference and after making the suggested changes, manually because 8.2 seems to have some differences CDroms are now working again. I dont really understand what I just did and I really dont understand why they stopped working in the first place. Has this happened to anyone else? Graham
