Well I have now some conclusions about what and how is happening:

first, here is the  part of my  fstab regarging dvdrom units:

/dev/dvd             /media/dvd           subfs      
noauto,fs=cdfss,ro,procuid,nosuid,nodev,exec,iocharset=utf8 0 0
/dev/dvdrecorder     /media/dvdrecorder   subfs      
noauto,fs=cdfss,ro,procuid,nosuid,nodev,exec,iocharset=utf8 0 0
/dev/hdb1            /data                reiserfs   defaults              1 2

NOW:

1-/dev/dvdrecorder  is working property. It's ok; it automouts cds and dvs 
without problems.

2-/dev/dvd  refuses to automount some media(not all):
                   a)-It's not a hardware problem, because the same DVD unit    
           
works  just fine(I've tried right today) in another machine, which has suse 
9.2 installed.
                    b)-/dev/dvd automounts cds without trouble, but refuses to 
automount DVDs(if you insert a DVD and press Ctr+alt+f10 any message apears, 
also when you issue the mount command without argument it appears /dev/dvd is 
not mounted), allthough for some reason inserted DVDs are usable by yast or 
xine's DVD navihation feature, be it that these programs mount the media when 
they need, or maybe that the media is unreportedly (sub/semi/auto)mounted.

any hints?

regards

jorge
