An update on my DVD woes:

If I put a data DVD in the drive, the click on "My Computer", the drive 
shows "Blank DVD-R" for media. Then, if I open a konqueror filemanager 
session and browse to /media/dvd, there is no data. Ditto with a movie 
DVD.

lshal -m

Start monitoring devicelist:
-------------------------------------------------

storage_model_DVD_RW_IDE1108 property storage.removable.media_available = 
true
storage_model_DVD_RW_IDE1108 property storage.removable.media_size = 
3880845312 (0xe7510000)
storage_model_DVD_RW_IDE1108 property storage.removable.media_available = 
false
storage_model_DVD_RW_IDE1108 property storage.removable.media_available = 
true
storage_model_DVD_RW_IDE1108 property storage.removable.media_size = 
8107722752  (0x1e3420800)
storage_model_DVD_RW_IDE1108 property storage.removable.media_available = 
false


If I su to root, then "mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /media/dvd" and then put 
in the data DVD and go back to the "My Computer" window and click on the 
DVD entry, a window pops up asking what I want to do with Blank DVD 
(dev/hdc). If I open with konqueror, there are the files.

A video DVD shows no files, probably since it isn't an iso9660 fs.

So why doesn't this dirty bastard automount the DVD in the first place?
