Re: not working my DVDROM
This is probably as silly question but I've got to ask, are you using mount to mount the disk after it's inserted? mtp5150 do you mean: mount /dev/hdb /media/cdrom1 ? it says: mount: No se ha encontrado el medio ( Media not found ) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

I'm confused. First you say that your DVDROM doesn't work. They you say that no matter what DVD or CD you put in, it can read it. That does not compute! Second, the contents of /etc/fstab are intended to be for permanent file systems that are always there. Since a DVDROM drive uses removable media, you wouldn't want to mount it at boot time in /etc/fstab. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

His fstab look right to me also. mtp5150 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

In fact, I checked my own /etc/fstab and similar entries are there on my system. Apparently the Debian Installer puts them there by default on the i386 platform. On the s390 platform, where I routinely edit this file, it does not. Funny, I never noticed that before. Unfortunately, this little side trip is doing nothing to help the user. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
