Edit your /etc/devfs.conf file...

Add this line:
 permacd00666


Simulate the boot-up of devfs:
 /etc/rc.d/devfs restart

(easier than rebooting)

Thanks Rudy, that fixed that problem, now though another has popped up - 
after listening to a cd, the system doesn't release the drive so the cd 
won't eject, I have to reboot to get the cd out.

can't access cdrom as regular user

2008-06-28 Thread chip

I can't access my cd drive on my regular login. I get this message -

CD-ROM read or access error (or no audio disc in drive).
Please make sure you have access permissions to:
/dev/acd0

So as root I set the permissions to 777 on acd0, then after a reboot the 
permissions were reset back to what they were previously. What do I have 
to do to get access to my cd drive on my regular account?
