I have newest debian on my computer. > Thanks in advance, Because there is an entry for the device in /dev, Debian recognised it and has a driver for it. I think that you still must add your userid to the group that has access to the device. First, find out the device's group: $ ls -l /dev/sr0 brw-rw---T+ 1 root cdrom 11, 0 jan 30 11:45 /dev/sr0 In my case, the device's name is /dev/sr0. It may differ in your situation. Then, as root, add your userid to the devices group: # adduser andrey cdrom I assume that your userid is andrey... Then, log out and log in again, until then the group change will have no effect.
