gvm is normally pretty verbose about the dbus messages it gets. So apparently i isn't getting events from hal. > I have tried my CD/DVD drives both with ide-cd and ide-scsi.

For more info see bug 242283. I've sent a patch for the problem yesterday, so hopefully it's fixed soon. To work around this you can either restart hal after the creation of your cd devices (so it interrogates udev manually) or apply the patch in the udev bugreport. Please let me know if this is indeed the problem, so i can reassign it to udev or start digging somewhat further. Sjoerd -- One Bell System - it works.
