Google search revealed problems, but no solutions or documentation on how this is supposed to work and I'm puzzled as I'm seeing different behaviours. On openSUSE 10.1 the cdrom/DVD devices are not being created (DVD RW installed) and 10.2Alpha4 (CDRW installed) /dev/cdrom is created. Checking all boxes, /etc/udev/rules.d/65-cdrom.rules on all are OK and on 10.2Alpha4 only there is also 60-cdrom_id.rules. Upgrading a 10.1 x86 box to hal(0.5.8_git20060822-3) and udev (0.99-3) built locally from factory source RPM's didn't change behaviour.

It is triggered in HAL.

GNOME and KDE use their builtin methods, if you need the cmdline,
use "halmount" from package "ivman".

Ciao, Marcus


This is on 10.2Alpha4 x86.
