Installed 2007 last week and been trying since to sort a couple of
problems.
I have both a CD/RW and DVD-ROM on my machine. Both drives recognise
data and audio CD's, ie the new Media found dialogue box comes up, but
place a DVD (ever a data or movie) in the DVD-ROM and nothing.
I'm a member of groups: audio, cdrom, cdwriter.
Permissions for /mnt are:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ cd /mnt
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mnt]$ ll
total 6
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 1024 Oct 28 15:34 cdrom/

Anyone with any clues as to the problem and how to overcome them would
like to hear from you.
