This is similar to a problem I had before, but it's happened now, after I upgraded my kernel to 2.4.0. I have an IDE Mitsumi CD Writer running under SCSI emulation. Using kmod, modules are loaded as required. Now, however this only works with root. A user can no longer play CDs or mount a cdrom, even if specified in fstab. Kernel config, I'm sure is as it was in 2.2.17: <M> Include IDE/ATAPI CDROM support <M> SCSI emulation support <M> SCSI support <M> SCSI CD-ROM support <M> SCSI generic support /etc/modules.conf is: alias iso9660 isofs alias scd0 sr_mod alias scsi_hostadaptor ide-scsi options ide-cd ignore=hdc pre-install sr_mod modprobe -k ide-scsi pre-install sg modprobe -k ide-scsi pre-install ide-scsi modprobe -k ide-cd and in /etc/lilo.conf I have: append = "mem=128M ignore=hdc hdc=ide-scsi" Any ideas? -- gav -------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.lug.org.uk http://www.linuxportal.co.uk http://www.linuxjob.co.uk http://www.linuxshop.co.uk --------------------------------------------------------------------
